Tipping in Italy is increasingly the norm and is appreciated, even though service staff aren't dependent on tips for their livelihood.
Many Italian waitstaff have been in their roles for decades, where waiting tables is a respected career, not just a temporary job.
While tipping is not required, the practice has evolved and contributes positively to the dining experience, showing gratitude and respect.
Unlike in the US, Italian waiters earn a salary that sustains their living, but tips are still viewed as a kind gesture.
