When you go out to a restaurant, fancy or not, you always want the best service you can get! Most people believe that in order to get great service from a restaurant, you need to be a regular or tip very well!
A study done by the University of Missouri found that’s not the case at all! In fact it something super simple. The study found that restaurant staff will believe when someone is well-dressed when dining at their restaurant, they will leave the best tips. So the staff will more likely give better service to the customers.
Now here in Las Vegas, there are a lot of restaurants. And on top of the locals who frequent these restaurants, there are a lot of tourists as well. While most tourists do dress up nicely for their dining, a lot dress casual…including the locals. Results showed that casual dressers who dine at restaurants, are thought to be poor tippers. The staff won’t be so quick to give them the best service.
They also found out that well-dressed men are more likely to leave better tips than a well dressed female or their significant other. If a man was casually dressed, they least likely to leave a good tip out of a group of people.
