It's $1 per seat reserved, so 4 people is $4.

Woah,

That's about half the tip at the cheap restaurants I go to, so I assume it would be a quarter of the tip at the "good" places.

Now, as I recall the help gets, on average, half their income from their tips.

So, yeah, that's a nice income indeed and you might see why a few folks aren't happy...
