it's different. The waiter serves in the restaurant, and the welcome service is the beginning of the restaurant's service for customers. The polite and elegant welcome service not only attracts customers, but also establishes a good restaurant image for the restaurant. Although the original intention of the welcome service in restaurants is good, the welcome service in many restaurants has not really played its due role, nor has it achieved the expected effect of catering managers, but has become a kind of "disturbance" and "shock" to restaurant customers.
So, what details should restaurant greeters pay attention to when serving guests, and how to provide customers with warm and generous welcome service? Below, China Eating Network catering consulting experts will share with you the workflow and details of restaurant welcoming service, such as pre-preparation for welcoming guests, welcoming guests, arranging guests to sit down, welcoming guests to leave at the right time, and seeing off guests.
