Welcoming the Guest

Fancy restaurants are very

expensive, we often see it on

and do the services. How
exactly they used and done the
cutlery, glassware and even
china. By watching along we

great experiences come in
reality.

ACKNOWLEDGING GUESTS

Do you notice a person who welcome

1 guests in fancy restaurants, they are often
called RECEPTIONIST, they’re usually in charge to greet guests, showing positive
gesture to a guest is a must to every establishment. In some food service
establishment, the head waiter or one of the waiters does the job of welcoming the
guest as they enter.

We practice the 3 principles of welcoming the guests:

1. Shout- not literary by shouting but enough to hear you clearly by the costumer
or guests
2. Smile- it’s appealing and form of good start by showing a warm welcome with a
smile.
3. Say- saying complementary style.

Points to Remember as You Are Welcoming the Guests

1. As follows, always open doors to guests with appropriate greeting. Make

pleasant eye contact and welcome the guest with an appropriate greeting.

00:00 – 11:59 “Good Morning”

12:00 – 06:69 “Good Afternoon”
07:00 – 12:59 “Good Evening”

2. Always use Ma’am/ Sir.

3. Be attentive and give excessive attention to the guest.
4. Check if there is a reservation.

state the name of the restaurant. Be positive when greeting the guest. Your
manner will affect guest’s satisfaction.
