View Full Version : Are you a good diner?

I know many of you have been waiters or waitresses and you have your own ideas of what a good diner is...

But do you think you are a good diner.

I think I am.

I don't order crazy extra things or tell them to leave things out of the order such as "hold the tomatoes" or even "put the dressing on the side"...I take the food as it's prepared and intended by the chef or cook.

I don't keep asking over and over for refills on drinks. I usually get one drink and a glass of water.

I don't usually ask the waiter what they think about two items such as..."Would you have the chicken or the fish?"

I don't generally hang around talking for a while when I can see the place is busy.

I don't make a mess of the table and I always try to leave a compensatory gratuity.

I tip a minimum of double the tax.

I order alot of stuff.

Don't forget to rip up the bill and put it in a glass of water as you hand it to the waitress.

I'm paying good money for this food. If I ask for it without capers, there damn well better not be any capers in it! If I ask for it medium and it comes out rare, you're damn right I'm going to ask for it to be prepared as I asked. Fuck you. Take the order properly you idiot.
The chef doesn't like my request and decides what's best for me? Fuck you too! I said I don't like it al dente you greaseball bastard!
Why would I be a pussy about it?

I'm an excellent diner. I'm on the same page with you Rich.

I never push the waiter or waitress for any outrageous orders. I'll get a refill if needed, but I'll wait until said server is near me and we make eye contact.

If figure if you want the food exactly how you want it, eat at home.


Of course, this all depends on the quality of service.

But I'll even tip the standard 15% on lackluster service. You take your chances when you go out.

i tip very well cause i used to deliver pizza in college and know how much tips mean...but i dont think its bad to ask for no onions or something like that...

speaking of that i went to mcdonalds the other day and got a double cheeseburger with no onions, and got charged extra for asking for less food...i dont really care but that just didnt seem right

I am a good diner...until you fuck up what few instructions I gave you or the kitchen starts sending shit out in the wrong order. Then I'm not very happy.

I don't go crazy on changes or any of that shit because I don't trust most kitchen staffs to get it right, so I just let it come as it usually does and take off what I don't want.

Bring me my entree 2 minutes after I started my appitizer though and you will get a shit tip. And no, you can't take that in the back for me and keep it warm. Why? So you can wipe your balls on it or at the very least dry it out under a fucking heat source?

Copying an order and taking it to the back to be filled is the most basic shit a place has to do. When they can't do that, no, I'm not a good diner.

The rest of the time I usually roll with 1 refill TOPS and that's only if what I ate was salty and that's about it.

I think I'm a good diner. I'll tip well and stack my plates (even though I've heard that is an insult to the server). As far as asking for extra stuff I think taking those requests makes a good server, its a two way street. I'm dining out so I can have things made the way I want them without me having to make it, that's why I'm PAYING MONEY.

1. No crazy modifications (Simple holds like tomatoes are fine, especially for allergies)
2. Never call out loud for the waitress
3. Dont try to order something thats not on the menu
4. NEVER send food back. If I dont like the food, I order something else. If the waitress asks I tell her whats wrong but I never ask for it to be taken off the check. (Usually they offer and thats cool)
5. Never send drinks back
6. Minimum tip is 20% no matter what
7. When your done eating stack your plates, silverware, trash, etc. to make it easy for the waitress to clean

These are the eating rules I live by. And I make sure that if my wife or family are out to eat with me, they follow the same rules.

Ive worked in the bar/restaurant business for 15 years, and EVERY rumor you hear about stuff they do to the food and drinks of people that are assholes is 100% true.

I don't fuck with the people who handle my food. My tip speaks for their shitty service.

I was just at an Outback last night and a young Spanish speaking guy who I usually get came right over and knew most of our order. He always makes sure our food comes out on time and he gets a generous tip.

It's funny how most of the shitty servers I've left shitty tips aren't there anymore. Know why? Their horrible job meant low tips and they couldn't hack it so they're gone.

Ritalin
06-18-2009, 02:58 PM
This whole thing about being afraid to send food back if it's wrong is way overblown. I worked in restaurance for years - I think everybody should work for tips at least once in your life so you can understand how the world works - and I never saw anyone fuck with the food. If you get a steak and you'd like it a little more done, ask them to do it. It's no big deal. If your food comes out cold, say something about it. Just be nice. People make mistakes in every business, it's no big deal.

You can tell from reading this thread who tips well and who doesn't. People who tip well generally don't talk about it very
much. They just do it.

15 percent is the floor for me. You can't always blame your waiter for bad service. If the chef is slow as shit and can't make good food, that's not a reflection on the waiter. Fifteen percent is a lousy enough tip, pure and simple. Anything less makes you look cheap/poor.

I went with my friend to a diner last night and she ordered a grilled cheese sandwich. The waitress asked her if she wants the bread toasted first, and my friend freaked out, saying that that is not how a grilled cheese sandwich is made. It is actually the second time, and second freak out by the same friend to the same waitress in this diner and I cringed at the thought of an argument between someone I am dining with and the wait-staff. In my heart it is a big time no-no to fight with people who handle your food. I have no idea why this waitress asks if you want the bread toasted first, nor why my friend freaks out.
It never occurred to me to wonder how a proper grilled cheese is made, but I assume that the way I make it at home is universal. Do you grill the bread slice by slice first and then add the cheese and then grill the whole thing?

Oh wait. According to tradition, I should reward you anyway for totally screwing up.

Fortunately, most of the places we go to are family owned, and we get along great with the entire staff and owners. They make an effort to keep us happy. Maybe make something off the menu. Just having the chef come out for a few minutes to talk with us. That's dining, my friends. They are treated very well because they do the same for us.

The waiter doesn't remember what you ordered 2 minutes after the leaves the table. He's probably got 5 other tables at the same time. That's why he writes it down. If you get the wrong plate when your entrees come out, politely alert the waiter, and you will likely get your meal shortly. The plate probably got switched and there's an extra chicken waiting for you in the kitchen.

My wife was a waitress or bartender for years.I worked in a few restaurants when I was young,always in the kitchen.

We always ask for what we want.My wife likes enchilada sauce on her burrito for instance.We have never had a problem with that kind of request nor should we.We never run the wait staff.We will try our best to ask for any extra things we may want or need at the same time.We are always polite and understanding if there is a problem or delay in the kitchen.If you are dining when the place is crowded these things happen.

We will not however eat something that isn't what we ordered or came out cooked wrong.If I'm paying $25 for a steak and I order it med rare and it comes out med well I am going to politely send it back.I never had a problem fixing a mistake when I was cooking they shouldn't either.On the other hand if I'm ordering an $8 steak and eggs meal at some greasy spoon my expectations are pretty low to begin with so I'll usually just eat what they give me.

20% is my standard tip.If we are in a nice place,like Charlies Steak House where we ate Friday night,i tipped the waiter 25%.The food and service were outstanding and he deserved it.On the other hand we went to our local Mexican place yesterday and three tables that were sat after us got their menus,drinks,and orders taken before we were spoken to.When the waitress finally showed up I was irritated..I said"See honey I told you we weren't invisible"
The waitress said"Whats the problem?"
me "Nothing now I guess we are just getting tired of waiting"
Waitress"You haven't been here that long"
me"We've been here longer than those three tables and they have already ordered"
her"You got your drinks didn't you?"
me "Yeah,because the manager felt bad and came and took our drink order."
her "Well Ive been busy.I have a big table over there.Do you want to order or not?"
me "Yes but not from you.All you can do is get the manager over here"

Normally I wouldn't be a dick but when she came over with her surly "What's your fucking problem ?"attitude I decided she wasn't going to touch my food or get my money.We eat at this place all the time and she has never waited on us before or I would have walked out.

I didnt work fine dining, and I dont want to give the specific place, but Ive bartended in places in line with TGI Fridays, Applebees, Outback...that type of place. And I happened to work at a bar that had a walk in cooler in the middle of it. People that were complete jerk offs to me have had there drinks stirred with my cock. And if you tipped shitty before and I remembered you, maybe you got your drink stirred with my barbacks cock.

Dude watch the movie Waiting. See the shit they do to that ladies food? Ive seen all of that done in many occasions. Not as much by the cooks but definitely from the waiters. I also never ever order frozen drinks while at a bar as Ive seen many a service bar blender rinsed out with piss during a shift.



GVAC im with you sir. Tipping is mandatory. To quote Steve Martin, "Its not tipping I believe in.....its OVERTIPPING." Maybe its because Ive worked for tips and I know that hourly kitchen guys dont give a fuck about my customers because they dont get the tip, or maybe Im just having a bad day, either way, bad tipping is NEVER acceptible. If Im with someone that wants to leave the tip and its not what I find acceptible I add my money til its respectable.

I am an excellent diner.

My wife and I and both of our kids have worked in food service industry in some capacity.
I worked in a couple kitchens doing prep work and some cooking.

I have a lot of patience with waitstaff depending on the restaurant. I usually will not send a dish back to the kitchen. I understand that waitstaff has to deal with a lot of picky shitbags and even with people that walk in with the attitude that everything is wrong.

I will however fuck with the waitstaff when I eat at the restaurant my daughter works at now. I am great friends with the chef/owner, we are like family, much like Olive Garden:wink:
I am with tub, I prefer a locally owned place rather than an "Applebee" type of place which I abhor.

I usually tip around 20% but if I get great service I will tip appropriately. If I can't afford a tip, I should not be eating out.

Reward.

Seriously, you should just go all the way and not tip at all.

Reward. Sheesh.

I didnt work fine dining, and I dont want to give the specific place, but Ive bartended in places in line with TGI Fridays, Applebees, Outback...that type of place. And I happened to work at a bar that had a walk in cooler in the middle of it. People that were complete jerk offs to me have had there drinks stirred with my cock. And if you tipped shitty before and I remembered you, maybe you got your drink stirred with my barbacks cock.

So you'd walk around with your junk glued to your shorts with some Applebees Green Apple Martini mix all night just because you didn't get that extra buck?

If i am paying for food then i am 100% right to order it the way i want it, whether that is with dressing on the side, hold the ____, or what have you. I tip well and i don't hassle my server unless there is a problem that is disturbing my dining experience.

If you want to be a server in any kind of restaurant there's no room, rhyme or reason for you to be offended, put off or outraged by your customers' dining preferences. Unless they are total ballbusters or routine customers who are known to leave lackluster tips.

This applies to chefs and servers. Unless you are in a restaurant that is high-brow and it's expected that what your order is pretty much final, with the exception of an allergy.

I don't understand how it is "rude" or shows that someone would have poor manners if/when they expect to be served food they're paying for with their own money.

Obnoxiously overtipping to prove what a "class act" you are is as classless as you are claiming they are, in and of itself.

This isn't some Vegas mafioso movie where everyone's throwin' around c-notes to sit close to Frankie and Deano. It's real life, and in real life a gentleman (or lady) recognizes when he's being treated well and when he is being treated poorly, and knows the proper way to behave in both situations.

The waiter doesn't remember what you ordered 2 minutes after the leaves the table. He's probably got 5 other tables at the same time. That's why he writes it down.

Oh yeah, that's another thing that goes on now. They DON'T all write it down. Not sure who they're showing off to or trying to impress, but so many servers today try to memorize an entire table's order. Fine if you can handle it, but if you then can't remember what we ordered (which happens often), you've now really fucked up and I'm going to be annoyed.

Theres a difference between ordering something how you want it and being a pain in the ass. Heres an example...

GOOD: Can I have a cheeseburger medium well hold the tomato and a long island iced tea.

PAIN IN THE ASS: Can I have cheeseburger no tomatoe no onion and 3 pickles. Medium rare but not too rare but not too cooked. Oh and I know its not on here but can I have parmesan cheese instead of American? And can I sub out the french fries for fried shrimp? Oh I cant? How about for pasta? Well they are both carbs I dont see why I couldnt do that. Ok Ill take the fries but I want them extra crispy, tell them to drop them in the oil right before the burgers is ready to come out. And let me get a long island iced tea but with only half ice and tell the bartender to make it strong, and put exactly 3 lemons in it.

yes, We usually tip 25% and no less than 15% even if the waiter/waitress sucks


great service will get a $10 Bill from a $25-$35 Check

$30-$40 for a $150 check

$10 0n $25? thats 40%!

or, 30 is 20% of 150. so usual service gets 25%, but great service gets penalized.

Only people with money behave like this. It's absolute truth. I worked in retail and 95% of the time the person driving the Mercedes put up the biggest fight over discounts and markdowns.

Actually, the system worked out like this...the barback is in the walk in cooler stocking beer while we wait on people. Asshole orders a drink, is either rude or tips like shit, I walk to the other side of the bar and make the drink, tap on the sliding glass door and open it, place glass on the bottom shelf and walk away, barback takes the drink, stirs it up and puts it back on the shelf, I walk back open the door, grab it and serve it.

Its been happening that way for years. I didnt make it up. When I became a barback I was told this was how it worked and if I didnt "stir the drink" my tips would reflect it later. Hey didnt matter to me, I wasnt drinking it.

The idea that anyone would tamper with my food at a restaurant is enough to allow my OCD to prevent me from ever eating at one again.

As it is i can't eat at any buffet style place where food is communal, or somewhere where i can visibly see the food being prepared in front of me.

I understand being pissed at a customer who is ignorant enough to not realize they're being unmanageable; but it clearly says something both about your work ethic and integrity that you would have to defile food someone is going to eat or drink in order to make yourself feel better about the situation.

It's called taking the higher ground.

You can also refrain from saying that this is a common practice of most servers and bartenders.

I never said it happens to everyone, just people that disrespect their server or are a monstrous pain in the ass. Honestly thats like 3% of customers? Maybe? Im not trying to justify myself.

I know a guy who used to work at a food establishment where a family who pissed him off ordered a large pizza.

He stepped on the dough used to make the pizza. He collected the spit from himself and at least three other coworkers to deposit on said pizza. He gathered the excess refuse from a skin rash around his groin to sprinkle across the top. To top it all off, he sprayed pan de-greaser across the top of it as a finishing touch.

He served it without remorse to the family with two children. Any time the incident is mentioned, he laughs with glee at the dim likelihood of their survival.

The offense? The woman was white and the man was black.

One lesson I learn often enough is this: don't counter what people WILL do with an argument for what people OUGHT to do. Start with the assumption that the person you deal with is a degenerate slob enemy of free humanity at the end of his rope who, by virtue of cretinism or misanthropy or a cocktail of both, may decide to give your food a venereal disease.

Luckily, I'm a charming and hilarious individual who enters a restaurant intent on being that evening's most awesome and compassionate customer, so as to minimize my chances of receiving a trampled, spit-laden, groin-peppered, degreaser-soaked pizza.

Wow. Thats even beyond me.

3 problems I wouldve had with that story...

1. Serving something shared by someone other then the offender. Especially a child. You want to fuck with someone, you fuck with the asshole.

2. The "offense" is ridiculous.

3. Spraying degreaser. Now your going from fucking with someones food to adding something that may kill them. Thats a pretty big line to cross.

The 16th century French satirical writer François Rabelais in his series of novels Gargantua and Pantagruel, discussing the various ways of cleansing oneself at the toilet, wrote that: "He who uses paper on his filthy bum, will always find his ballocks lined with scum", proposing that the soft feathers on the back of a live goose provide an optimum cleansing medium.

based on what? i'm an excellent diner. telling a tool like you what i think of you has nothing to do with anything else.

and if anyone at any job i ever had asked me to put my dick in a drink i'd have quit on the spot. just because you're unhappy with your job isn't anyone else's problem.

No we werent. I already know you think that its wrong. Im not trying to convince you it isnt. Hell Im not even saying its not wrong, but that I understand why it happens. Just because something may not be "right" doesnt mean people dont do it and dont feel sorry about doing it.


You see when you work at a corporate restaurant, you sometimes get people that know that no matter what they say, you cant say or do anything. Because the corporate style of management is to always side with the customer, even if they are wrong. So customers take this upper hand they have and use it to treat their SERVER like they are their SERVANT.

But what they dont realize is once that server is out of view of the customer, the server has the upper hand. So they get back at them for being a dick the only way they can, by fucking with their food and then watching them eat something disgusting.

But hey, you said youre an excellent diner so you shouldnt have anything to worry about, right?

85% of the time the cheese is removed from pizza. & i dunno any other girls who don't like cheese. in fact gvac & sheepy are the only other people i've ever met who won't eat it.

When I was a kid I once had food poisoning from eating uncooked mozzarella cheese. I was rushed to the hospital while throwing up everywhere the entire ride.

That turned me off of that kind of cheese for years. But Id still eat pizza with it. I just wouldnt eat something like the Polly-O string cheese.

I think I am a good diner, I don't like to complicate things an I also don't like making a scene when things go wrong, I will however express my dismay at the end of the meal.

Prime example was one of the restaurants we visited while on vacation in Germany.
This was in a vacation area with mostly sail boat and house boat guests coming into harbor and enjoying dinner. It was basically the only restaurant around in walking distance. (sorry this is long... )

The menu started off being a flimsy paper print out folded into a booklet, the menu items were completely out of order and it looked like some flyer with ads on it where you had to decipher what is an actual meal.

The waiter took forever to bring us the drinks and finally take our order.
I ordered a fish that was supposed to be on a bed of veggies and with potato wedges on the side. My dad ordered a steak which was supposed to have a side of fresh steamed veggies and potato wedges as well.
I tried to get Lukas fries but they only had those wedges with tomato sauce, not even ketchup in house (yet they had a kids eat free deal on a certain day of the week... with no real kids meals on the menu) The wedges were listed as a kids meal with a salad on the side, which he likes so I was fine with that.
Now the prices were relatively upscale for the area, the outdoor chairs and tables were far from upscale.
It took over an hour and we still had not gotten our food.
When we finally caught a waiter to ask for a second drink (no free refills in Germany!!!) we asked for the food and she looked at us like we asked her some very difficult math question and she just could not come up with an answer.
Well, half hour passes and we finally get the food.
My dad receives one plate with just the meat on it, (he was never even asked how well he would like it done, one part was medium rare and the second basically rare, which he does not like... )
Lukas gets a plate with potato wedges. (No salad) I get a plate with fish, then another plate with potato wedges was placed next to my dad.
I asked the waitress where the vegetables were and if I was going to receive my potatoes as well (after all, it said so on the menu... ) and she looked at me in disbelief yet again.
I said; I am just wondering because it said on the menu. She answers me that my veggies were under the fish and that we can share the potatoes and ask for more when they were gone. (REALLY???) :annoyed:
Well the veggies turned out to be heated up coleslaw and way over salted. Even my dad who dumps salt and maggi seasoning on everything could not eat it.

So we never received my sons salad, my dad's fresh veggies and my potatoes... the food was awful (not the waiters fault) and when they came to bring the bill they asked if everything was ok.
I just said no, but i would like to pay now. (My dad actually was so mad yet friendly enough to tell him it was good)

Looking at the bill they had charged full price for the kids meal, so I reminded him that we did not receive that... he told us to cut that item in half (basically I got to recalculate our check myself and pay what I came up with...)

I paid him the full amount they asked and told him he could keep the difference as tip.
That seems very little, but in Germany they don't tip the way we tip here, so he actually made a very nice tip on top of horrible service and even worse food.

I'm a good diner unless the server is a complete and total fuckwit.

If the place isn't busy, it should not take 45 minutes for a steak cooked medium with fries and a drink. I should not be getting my appetizer with my entree. I should not have to flag someone down for a refill on my water or soda.

And if the server has a bad attitude (with no apologies from them, especially if it's slow!) from the moment we sit down, their tip will be located inside of my turned upside-down glass of water stuck on the table.
