Greeting the Member

All members will be greeted by the host(ess) in a timely manner and with the same cordiality.  Make them feel welcome! A greeting using last names should be used whenever possible. This conveys friendliness and familiarity and will create a start to an enjoyable day/evening. Ensure that you’ve recorded the member’s name and member number.

Seating the Guest

An efficient host(ess) knows what seats are available without having to let the guest wait. When not engaged in greeting or seating members, he/she should scan the dining room to ensure a member is not in need of service and that tables are being served properly.

When a server is not immediately available to answer a member's signal or the member seems to have that searching look, the host(ess) should step up and inquire, "May I be of assistance?"

When extra set-ups and chairs are needed at a table, have these changes made before taking the member to the table. Have unnecessary set-ups removed from the table.

Don't walk too fast or get too far in front of members while showing them to the table. Always seat members in a professional manner, pulling their chair out and handing each their menu. Do not seat a member at a dirty table. Each table must be completely clean and set-up before a member is seated. Inspect table for proper settings and be certain each seat is clean. Let them know their server will be right with them and whenever possible the name of their server.
