- Develop a strong understanding of the menu so you can confidently explain dishes, ingredients, spice levels, and available options while making appropriate recommendations to guests.
- Provide attentive table service throughout the guest experience by checking on tables regularly, responding promptly to requests, and ensuring food and beverages are served correctly.
- Work closely with kitchen staff, other servers, and management to maintain proper order timing, accuracy, and smooth coordination during both regular and busy service periods.
- Process cash, debit, and credit-card payments accurately while ensuring guest bills are prepared and presented correctly.
