Anyone a Waiter or have been?

Question

Hi, i’m starting my new job at a restaurant as a waitress in a month and I just wanted to get some advice from waiters/former waiters on how to get more tips and just any tips on what really goes down well for the customers :)

Answer

Learn how to fake a smile, it really helps you get those tips if the customers believe you are enjoying the job

Answer

I have been a waitress for over 7 years now. Honestly you just need to always make sure drinks are always filled, you’re offering more alcohol (if you have it at your restaurant), make sure nothing is wrong with the food or it’s prepared how they’d like it, on top of that some customers like to get to know their servers (usually if they are regulars) some just want their food and to leave. Have to learn how to read the type they are. I usually get way better tips from regulars that know a little about me, my son, my new pregnancy, and schooling.

Answer

Be sure to wear comfy supportive and slip resistant shoes. You'll be on your feet for hours running around and when I used to work as a waitress at a truck stop no one told me my feet would ache to the point of not being able to sleep. Good luck with your new job you'll do great!

Answer

be really extra nice to customers, but you don't always have to take shit from other employees
