A few tips when dining out is your choice…
Let restaurants know ahead of time of any food allergies or dietary preferences.
If headcounts or plans change, call ahead so restaurant staff can make adjustments to your table. Planning in advance always makes a more pleasant experience for everyone concerned.
If for some reason, you book your Mother’s Day reservations (or any reservation for that matter) at more than one restaurant, be considerate and ALWAYS remember to cancel your reservations where you decide not to dine. ALWAYS! Thank you.
Also, remember to tip service staff with the knowledge that servers also tip out the bartender, bussers and food runners.
