Actually, according to your own link it is perfectly legal in Washington state to pay tipped employees below minimum wage - provided their tips make up the difference. To quote the part you missed:
So yes, she could have been telling the truth when she said she was only getting $7/hr plus tips. It's completely legal there.

Including tips and cash wages, all tipped employees must still earn at least the Washington Minimum Wage of $9.32 per hour. If a Washington employee does not earn at least $9.32 including tips in any given hour of work, their employer must make up the difference in cash.

Uh Oh. Looks like I chose the right person to believe.

It is not legal here. Try and keep up.
