I believe what you said. but the owner是關鍵, if he doesn't

want to do anything, it will be difficult for you to get the tips. What Laomao said is right. The owner is the one in control here, only if he wants to take some action will you be able to get some tips. I know one restaurant owner keeps 5% of the tips for the business, and re-distribute some tips to other people who work in the kitchen. Waiters don't get 100% of the tips.
