Differences from different eras and locations.
Miami Beach a decade or so ago, before the era of electronic payment.
The ticket listed a suggested tip that was around 17% (I don’t remember the exact number but it was below 20%) but you could change it. Same suggested amount at all the restaurants over several years.
San Diego a few years ago, after mandatory health insurance or similar items was required of all restaurants for their employees. Signs at the door with the statement that there was an additional fee added to the bill to cover the new mandates.
