As soon as the “no tax on tips” passed my baseline tip dropped 5%.

What about the cooks? Hostess? Other back of house staff?

    They generally get a portion of the tips. It varies from place to place, but when I was serving it was about 3% of total sales, regardless of tip percentage. If you did $1000 in sales, $30 of your tips went to BOH and support staff, whether you made $100 or $300.
