...whatever rule you use for regular service, in my opinion it applies here too. Don't be a cheapskate. You just have to place a value on the services you are receiving (ie, guessing how much you would have paid/tipped for that tasty dinner at a 'regular' restuarant), which can be a bit of a pain, but it's good to show respect for the people who are working to make sure you have an excellent experience.
there is a bit of a karmic benefit to this as well. if you stay long enough you'll find that the staff knows you tip and their service will be that much better.
then again, i'm biased on this topic since i know plenty of small business owners, waiters/waitresses, and freelancers who rely on gratuities as their main source of income.
