A guest asks, “What’s the best thing on the menu?” and your server says, “Everything is great.”

It’s not helpful. It’s actually frustrating. And worse, it costs you money.

There are 3 things that your servers need to be able to answer.

1. What’s the best thing on the menu?
2. What’s your favorite thing on the menu?
3. What’s the most popular thing on the menu?

It’s not a trick question but your staff needs to be trained how to answer them without rambling or giving those generic answers.

Can we talk about another absolute nightmare for restaurants real quick? Payroll and hiring systems that just weren’t built for us. Tools like ADP and Paychex were designed for office jobs but we’re dealing with high turnover, shifting schedules and a constant barrage of changes in labor laws. That’s why 46 of the top 50 restaurant brands use Workstream instead. Finally connect hiring, payroll, scheduling and compliance on one platform. It’s music to my ears when something is built specifically for restaurants. And right now, Workstream is giving you 3 months of FREE payroll when you book a demo at www.therestaurantboss.com/workstream.
