Responsibility

Procedures
Communication
Supervisors and servers should communicate effectively with each other at all times. This includes communicating about the
following:
5. Clear your mind of everything except work when you walk in the door. When you're at the table, make sure your mind
is at the table too. Guests can tell when their server is not mentally present with them nearby, which hurts the guest
experience and the server's tip.
6. Anytime you wait on a customer, put yourself in their place and ask yourself if you would be happy with the job you
did at that table.
7. Never sit down with a guest or friend while on duty, even if they ask you to.
8. Don't ever stand around or lean on anything. You can constantly clean. Running clean-up, wiping shelves or the sales
station, taking bus tubes to the back, etc. A server never goes into or leaves the kitchen empty-handed. Full hands
in, full hands out!
9. If a customer leaves you an offer to buy a drink, tell them you don’t drink or will be happy to accept the offer again
when you are not on duty.
Cooperation
Supervisors and servers should cooperate to ensure that the restaurant runs smoothly. This includes the following:
Positive attitude
Supervisors and servers should maintain a positive attitude at all times. This includes the following:
Other standards
18. The Hotel consists of 5 F&D Outlets (Posta Restaurant, Posta Cafe, Posta Asia, Room service, Meetings & Events)
Each Area is fully equipped to operate.
19. The department is under the supervision of the service lead.
20. All Employees must report to work on time.
21. If a staff member, for emergency reasons, cannot report for work, they have to inform the service lead at least 4 hours
before their duty starts.
22. All personal phone calls should be avoided during working hours; in an emergency, you must report to the supervisor
to use the phone.
23. Mobile phones are strictly forbidden at work!
24. Staff cannot leave their duty before all tasks are done except approved by their supervisor.
25. Every Employee must report any accident immediately to their supervisor.
26. Ensure all your food is secure when you leave the kitchen. Never attempt to carry too much. Two safe trips are better
than one catastrophe.
27. Whenever you are reaching across someone or serving in front of someone, excuse yourself.
28. If you must go to the bathroom during the shift, ask someone if they will please watch your station while you are gone,
and inform the manager so that they are not looking for you.
29. Unauthorized persons are not allowed in the kitchen. If one appears, politely but firmly escort them out and get the
manager or whomever they want to speak to.
30. Always ENTER the kitchen keeping to the right. Always walk quickly, but never run. This will prevent serious
accidents, extra work for everyone, and uncomfortable feelings for the guest that you are in a rush. Guests want to have
their meals in a calm and cozy atmosphere.
31. Keep yourself geared up to prepare for any rush. We get most of our complaints during the Restaurant's slow period.
32. Learn to use your time wisely. Check all the tables before returning to the kitchen when in your station. Don't go to one
table, then go to the kitchen. Consolidate your trips.
33. Fill up all the glasses in your station, clear all plates, and then go on to something else.
34. Never spend more than two minutes away from your station.
35. No eating or drinking in front of the house during operating hours.
36. No gum chewing or smoking EVER.

meat/fish/vegetables and try to offer items from the menu accordingly.
21. Each time the server takes an order, he should know what might elevate the guests' experience. Should be relaxed
and friendly, polite and professional, and should have an idea of what extras (appetizers, sides, etc.) Allow the
customers to finish ordering before jumping in with suggestions. They will suggest suggestions based on what
they genuinely think will enhance the guest's dining experience. If they hesitate, then it's the server’s turn. "May I
suggest the Georgian traditional…? It's one of our most traditional/popular dishes." If they still hesitate, the server
might say, "Would you like a little longer to decide? Please let me know if I can answer any questions."
22. The server can offer premium liquor in all cocktails. (Gin tonic – would you like to have it with Hendriks?) It
makes the drink taste better.
23. The server should make specific suggestions at every step of the meal if it's appropriate: drinks, appetizers, sides,
beer, desserts, and after-dinner drinks. Sure, we remember, but more importantly, we want our guests to leave
delighted, so they RETURN! Always remember that the first objective is to show guests a marvelous time, not
PUMP UP THE CHECK.
24. If the guest doesn’t order the starter and orders the main course, the server should mention an estimated serving
time and offer starters in case the time seems too long to the guest.
25. The server should always repeat the order back to the guests to ensure accuracy.
26. The server should inform guests of the expected service time.
27. The server should always ask about food allergies or dietary requirements.
28. The server should write down the order and mention seat numbers (S1, S2, S3…).
