Great material on restaurant service basics!! 17 Jan 2006
By Jack Fu - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The book explains how a restaurant is operated thoroughly. The book has pictures to allow easy comprehension. The roles of the entire team from Owner to buss, they're all in there. Explains everyone's task and gives projects to practice on to get a first hand experience. I recommend this book to all business owners and managers. Great book even for waiter/waitress wanting to improve their service.

Excellent Resource!! 12 May 2010
By Shauna Libsack - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
As a curriculum designer and training manager, I highly recommend Restaurant Service Basics. It is an excellent training tool for hospitality programs, inhouse restaurant training program as well as the individual wanting to seek restaurant employment. Every aspect of restaurant service is covered thoroughly. All restaurants should have a copy on the shelf as a basic reference for those infrequently encountered situations. This valuable resource has been published for a number of years and regular new editions keep the content fresh and current.

What a Waste of Time! 1 Aug 2007
By The Brit - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I bought this book based on the editorial and customer review. Service basics is an overstatement. Do not buy this book unless you have never dined in a restaurant. It will not help you at all if you know anything about the business. The book is filled with helpful gems like "The course that is usually served first is the appetizer. The appetizer is a food item served before the meal..." Wow thanks! What's a Napkin? The computerized service system is at least 10 years behind industry standards and serving from the left with the left hand is not the way it is always done. Stick with the Culinary Arts Institutes "Remarkable Service" It is by far the best there is.
