Customers should wait patiently when ordering, don't rush, and let them have time to think about it. When ordering, take a pen and paper to record at any time. If the guest hesitates, the waiter should be a good adviser and introduce the varieties and characteristics of the dishes enthusiastically. Pay attention to language art, be polite and euphemistic, and don't recommend it reluctantly or stiffly, so as not to cause the guests' disgust. If the food ordered by the guest is out of stock, please apologize politely and ask for forgiveness. If the guest's order is not on the menu, don't refuse. You can say, "Please allow me to discuss with the chef and try to meet your requirements." When the guest orders, the waiter should smile and lean forward slightly, don't lean on the table, and don't put your hands on the table. Listen carefully, record accurately and avoid making mistakes.

In order to ensure the quality of service, the most basic thing for a hotel must be "four arrivals". That is, the personnel should be on duty, the language should be in class, the service should be in place, and the quality should be in the file. This "four arrivals" is crucial.

Personnel should go to the post

First of all, the personnel should take their positions. The service personnel didn't arrive in time in advance. Who will entertain the guests? As a hotel waiter, you should treat your guests as "God". Although we are on the balance of law, we are equal before the dignity of personality. But in the social division of labor, our role is to serve the guests. This "service" means serving others. From this point of view, we should put our position in order. Therefore, since the guest is "God", our role "identity" is definitely lower than that of the guest. For the sake of the guests, you should arrive early on duty, which is the basic common sense of work and life. Only by arriving at the post in advance can we have enough time to make full, serious and meticulous preparations for the reception and wait for the arrival of the guests calmly. If you are still eating in the canteen a few minutes before going to work, you should change clothes quickly; Or run to the hotel while eating vegetables, can you prepare the service leisurely? If the preparatory work is not done well, how to ensure the service effect? The author has been engaged in office work for a long time and has the habit of arriving early for a long time. I arrived several times early, which really saved my life. There was a signing ceremony, and the banner in the conference room was hung up the night before, but I arrived early in the morning and found that a corner of the banner was missing, so I immediately asked someone to cooperate and made a remedy before the signing ceremony. On another occasion, after arriving at the meeting place in advance, I found that the door of the meeting room was not opened, the materials were not prepared, the chairs were not enough, and so on, all of which were made up in time.

Language is for class.

Arriving in the hall is a local language in Chongqing. There are many meanings such as timeliness, catching up, moderation, and not lagging behind. Language is a unique tool for human beings to express their feelings, communicate and understand each other. Our service language refers to the language used by waiters to communicate with guests in the process of receiving guests in order to serve them.

In order to serve the guests well, we must communicate with them in language, and language is the first service. Guests check into the hotel and enter the lobby; When guests eat, they arrive at the restaurant; We need the doorman to welcome our guests with welcome words. If the employees in these positions don't use language to serve in time at this time and turn a blind eye to the arrival of guests, what about the quality of service? Similarly, in the process of guest consumption, there is also the problem of moderate language. Some people talk too little, which makes them seem indifferent to their guests. If you talk too much, the guests will be too wordy. Service language should be simple, lively, concise, correct and to the point. Service language seems to be neither physical nor hardware, but it is often indispensable in the daily service process. For example, a big round table in the middle of the restaurant is holding a family banquet to celebrate the birthday, and one dish after another is served. The laughter of the octogenarian added joy to the banquet, and the harmonious atmosphere infected the whole restaurant. When a large basin and snacks were put together into a peach symbolizing longevity, the guests cheered in unison, attracting diners at the next table to wait and see. After a while, the basin bottomed out. But somehow, after eating this snack, I haven't seen the side dishes for a long time. The guests began to quiet down, their faces lowered, and the hot birthday would slowly cool down. A quarter of an hour passed, and the food still didn't come. The old man's son finally couldn't hold on and went to the service desk. The head waiter in the restaurant was surprised: "Isn't your food already served?" Everyone was disappointed when the old man's son told the news. I walked out in a gloomy mood. It was because when the waiter finally served the birthday peach, he left out a sentence "Your food has been served", which made the guests very disappointed. The service language program is not well completed, which affects the service quality and can not meet the requirements.

Service should be in place.

The service in place is further and deeper than the previous "two arrivals". That is, in customer service, we should strictly follow the norms and processes, be meticulous, and be in place and just right. Hotel services must first be standard services and regular services, which is the foundation. Only on the basis of standardization can we develop and extend to personalized service and unconventional service. Some experts believe that if the service is to be in place, it must be standardized first. Don't lower standards, don't miss items, don't be sloppy, and don't be misplaced. Politeness, hygiene, equipment, facilities and operation must be in place. These places may be all or only some services, so we should be flexible on the basis of norms, but don't miss anything. It often happens that you forget the floor, the countertop and the corner in the middle when cleaning. Or it is done but not thorough, not clean, and does not meet the hygiene requirements, which is not in place. These are all things that we need to overcome in our service.

In the hotel service, because the objective situation is not static, imperfect situations often occur. Once this situation is discovered, every employee not only has the responsibility to do his personal work well, but also has the responsibility to make up for his colleagues and ensure that the services of the department and even the hotel are in place: in case of complaints, anyone should take the initiative to accept them, accept their opinions with an open mind, take the initiative to take responsibility, and never let go, or deliberately delay or shirk.

Quality should be recorded.

When I say "to file", I will do it according to the norms and rules, and reach the quality standard and quality level I deserve. No looseness, no discount, no water. The concept of quality is explained as follows: it reflects the sum total of an entity's ability to meet requirements and potential demands. Entities include products and activities, processes, organizations (units) or people. Needs, prescribed needs and implied needs, material needs and spiritual needs, social needs and personal needs. We take service (also a commodity) as the premise to meet the reasonable consumption needs of our guests, which is in line with social ethics. However, due to the product characteristics of the hotel industry, many service forms are intangible products, such as information service, catering service, room service and a large number of reception services. Therefore, it is difficult to achieve accurate and quantitative quality standards for serving this product. However, no matter how the hotel quality is stipulated, the most important thing is the guest's evaluation: the guest's evaluation is the basic measure of service quality, and subjective evaluation is usually the only factor for the guest to evaluate the services provided: this is the service tenet that we often say "the guest is God" and "the guest is always right". This "subjective evaluation" of guests is arbitrary, not necessarily unreasonable, but the hotel industry must agree with the conclusion that guests' subjective feelings are good or bad.

To this end, whether our service quality is upgraded or not is determined by customer satisfaction. If you cook any food, you can see how to do it. The kitchen has its own quality standards, but the final quality must be recognized by guests with different tastes. You said that 25℃ is the standard of room air conditioning, but some guests are afraid of cold and heat. You have to adjust the temperature to meet the needs of the guests, so that the quality can reach the standard. Therefore, when self-testing, self-checking and self-controlling the quality, we should pay attention to the subjectivity and randomness of the guest's evaluation, and we should not be complacent because of the guest's praise or belittle ourselves because of the guest's complaints. Service quality means strengthening daily life, strengthening system, strengthening norms, strengthening prevention, strengthening control, strengthening every link to meet quality standards and requirements, and trying not to let guests leave with dissatisfaction and "no longer coming" and "no longer living".
