If you work at Applebees and receive tips, are you required to report all tips to Applebees?

Do they include all tips on your W2? Or is it credit card tips only, and it is up to the server alone to report cash tips?If you work at Applebees and receive tips, are you required to report all tips to Applebees?
I used to work at Applebees. If I remember correctly, tips included on your W2 are tips that you claimed. Where I worked, when the server "cashes out", the system required the server to claim 10% of your total sales or the total of their credit card tips, whichever is the larger amount. It is up to the server to be "honest" and claim ALL tips actually earned if larger than the above amounts. I believe the W2 shows the total of the amounts the server claimed each night worked.If you work at Applebees and receive tips, are you required to report all tips to Applebees?

You are legally required to report all tips received regardless of how those tips are made (i.e. cash or credit card).
