This is the way I've always done it, in California it comes out to a little over 16%. This is what I do for average service, which frankly is what I receive the vast majority of the time...I rarely receive service that I think is terrible, and I rarely receive service that I think is truly exceptional. I tend to add a little more if it's a cheap bill (since others have pointed out, the difference between 15% and 20% can be minimal) and of course if it's exceptional service they will get something like 20%.
