I tip exactly the same on either of those bills. On a salad or a steak, I am going to give the same tip for the same quality and level of service.
I'm not sure what you tip, but do keep in mind tipping $6 on a $30 bill is not equal to $6 on say a $100 bill. Former case being a good tip, the ladder being a poor one. Almost all restaurants make servers tip out. Some of those tip outs are based on a percentage of there sales. The server tips out that percentage no matter what tips they received.
Plus higher bills do tend to equal more work.
This is just another reason why following the standard for tipping is the most fair way of showing your appreciation or dissatisfaction with your service.
My grandmother use to think it was OK to leave a dollar no matter what the bill. If someone left me a dollar I would end up paying to serve them after tip out.
