Yes, the tax is included. You pay tips on the amount before tax and both are shown on the bill. They also show you the 18% and 20% amounts on the bill, but you can leave more or less depending on how happy/unhappy you were with the service.

Our tips in 2014 came to $262.50 and we always tipped 18-20%. So, the $200 gift card covered most of them We did have 2 meals where the tip is included though - Cinderella's Royal Table and Hoop Dee Doo Revue.

Just a quick note on Planet Hollywood - they worked out the tip on the price including tax, so just double check if you're planning on eating there.
