Do servers make good tips at a Japanese steakhouse?

I have experience as a server and recently came across a listing for an opening at a Japanese hibachi style restaurant. I'm quite fond of dining out at these places but rarely see a server participate in my meal besides the beginning and the end. I'm wondering if it's worth it to apply for the job.

No. The server gets a very minimal tip. Most of the places I've been to people tip close to 10% or a little under. You brought out the drinks and a salad--often times they had other wait staff bring out the salads. That's it. I never see them again until they bring the check. Even when/if they come back to give refills, you don't notice b/c you are paying attention to the chef's show.



I think you would get tipped a lot less than you would at another restaurant with roughly the same prices. Though a lot of people tip the same 15% regardless of where they eat. The advantage there is that you wouldn't have to work for your 15% but the turnover isn't high either since they stay til the show is over.
