Tell us about the best waiter/waitress you've ever had |
|
Paul and I were in Madison a few years back (before going vegan) and stopped at the Pizzeria Uno there. The waitress comes over, bright and cheery, and asks if we're ready to order.
I say yes and wait for her to get her pad and pen ready. Nothing. I asked if she wasn't going to write it down. She miles and says, "No, I'll be OK."
So we order the pizza, the appetizers and the drinks. I bet Paul that there'd be a mistake on the order.
She was phenomenal! Everything was perfect and she had several other tables that she was doing the same thing at.
BEST server I had ever seen.

3. I knew someone would louse this up... |

Though I do admit I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

2. My brother Jim. When he lived in Chicago he waited tables at |
|
Ed Debevec's as "Zeke" (that was his psuedonym, they all have them). I have to say (without much bias) he is the greatest waiter in the country. You can catch him in LA now...new restaurant...Hawaiian theme...can't remember the name.

it's the Chinese restaurant I regularly go to. They treat our family as one of their own. And every waitress there does it.

I was out with friends, after her shift was up she got herself a chair and slid up next to me. What's a guy to do?

17. I would like to think it's me but |
|
I doubt it. It's not that I make mistakes but I guess by that time of day (already have worked a full 9 hrs at my other job) I could be friendlier.

21. Hmm... I guess the guy at the Cotton Patch last month |
|
He was very attentive... filled our glasses without having to be asked... and when I spilled a little on my chest, he brought me a moist towellette immediately. Very attentive and cheerful. He got a great tip.
When we mentioned what great service we had to the cashier, she knew right away who we were talking about. :D
