The 'Twilight' star left the waitstaff a $50 tip following a luxurious late night snack with four friends at New York's Il Cantinori restaurant last Tuesday.
Despite the first-class service they received, the 23-year-old actor failed to reward staff appropriately after eating and drinking up a $350 tab at the Greenwich Village eatery.
Robert - who was in New York to work on his latest movie 'Remember Me' - and his friends arrived at the restaurant at 10pm and sipped bottles of Italian beer and Chianti red wine until they left at midnight. A source told America's OK! magazine: "They were the last diners to leave."
Despite the disappointing tip, Robert - who had the Caprese salad and the veal Milanese - was described as "nice and friendly" by waiting staff. When it comes to the gratuity, 18-20% is standard for regular folks. 25-30% is standard for people 'in the media.' Bruce Willis has been known to tip a C-note for a cup of coffee.
THIS TIME, we can chalk it off to the inexperience of youth. Rob, you have the money, dip a little deeper into your pocket next time.
