I would like to know the general consensus of what percentage is customarily used these days, for tipping out bussers, host (ess) & bartenders? Anyone care to chime in?

We look at the total food sales for each server and require 3.5% which goes intio a pool for the bussers, host(ess) food runner. We then take the total liquor, beer and wine sales and take .05% for the bartenders. Don't know how this compares with others but, seems to be OK with our folks.......
