Customs and Traditions: It is almost a custom to tip in restaurants in San Jose as it is in the rest of the United States. Visitors from other countries might find it strange sometimes. In any restaurant in which you sit down to have a meal, you are expected to leave a tip of 15%. If the service is really good, some people even leave 20%. If you are dining out with a big group of people, the tip will be included in the bill that they give you. So, you should check the bill carefully to see if the tip is already included.
