Tipping is not part of Japanese dining culture. Attentive, high-quality service is considered the standard, not something that requires extra payment.
No tip is expected in any ordinary restaurant, bar, or taxi.
Leaving money on the table can cause confusion, and staff may follow you outside to return it, believing you forgot it. If you want to show appreciation, a verbal thank you is the appropriate gesture.
