Ask the Salty Waitress: Should I expect the food-delivery person to schlep up my stairs?
　　Dear Salty: After years of living in a rural area where food delivery doesn’t exist, I’m finally back in a somewhat urban environment and can enjoy having foodstuffs brought right to my door. It’s a life-changer. However… 　　There’s one delivery place that won’t actually bring the food right to my...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Help! My server speaks like a millennial nitwit
　　Dear Salty: In the past few years, I’ve noticed a scourge of servers (mostly at trendy restaurants) who speak to customers with, how do I say it, internety jackass millennial language? There’s no more decorum, like: “How is the food?” Instead we get: “Are we stoked on the grilled octopus?...

Ask The Salty Waitress: How do I address my employee’s low-cut shirts?
　　Hi Salty Waitress, I’m an assistant manager at a casual restaurant in Texas. I get along well with the people on my team, but I’m in an uncomfortable position with one server, a woman, and I’m not sure how to proceed (I’m a man, just to clarify.) This server follows...

Ask The Salty Waitress: An acquaintance just asked me to Venmo her for petty food expenses
　　Dear Salty Waitress: A couple weeks ago, I went away on a girls’ weekend for my friend’s 40th birthday. The group included people I know well, as well as some women I had only met a few times. We paid for the big stuff up front: hotel, wine tasting trip,...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Can I use the other restroom?
　　Dear Salty: Quick question. Can I use the men’s bathroom if the women’s one is in use? (I’m a lady.) 　　Signed, 　　Gots2Go 　　Dear Gots2Go, 　　Sure, I’ve got no problem with this. I assume you’re talking about those single-room type setups, in which case, who cares which you use? Is some...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Can I send back the “dealer’s choice” cocktail I ordered?
　　Dear Salty: At a nice cocktail bar recently, I asked the bartender to make me an off-menu drink with bourbon as the base. I ended up with a cocktail that was way too sweet for my taste. In this case, I just half-finished it and paid for it, but I’m...

Ask The Salty Waitress: How can I avoid these nosy regulars?
　　Hi Salty, I just starting working at a small restaurant that’s open for lunch and dinner. It’s not uncommon for me to be the only server on during lunch service, so I have to handle all the tables. The past two weeks, there’s this older couple who came in at...

Ask The Salty Waitress: My server didn’t say I’d be charged for a menu substitution
　　Dear Salty: At dinner recently at a nice restaurant in my town, I asked the waiter if it would be possible to substitute certain seafood in the bouillabaisse. I saw that the restaurant had a scallop dish on the menu, so I asked whether I could get scallops in the...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Is it tacky to open presents at a restaurant?
　　Dear Salty: What’s the protocol for opening gifts at a higher-end restaurant? I understand why people would bring gifts to a birthday dinner, but isn’t it sort of tacky to make a big scene of ripping open paper, rustling gift bags, and yelling about the gifts? I saw this going...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Why can’t I have the good table?
　　Salty, I took my mother out to a small French restaurant this past Friday for her birthday. It was just the two of us (my father is dead and my brothers are, honestly, kind of deadbeats who don’t want to put on collared shirts). Anyway, we had a reservation even...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Do I need to tip my coworker for making me an espresso?
　　Dear Salty Waitress, I work as a cashier at a medium-sized and family-owned grocery store. This is the first time in my life I have had this kind of job, and I got it after my wife got a job in the U.S. (We come from France.) 　　Everything is fine...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Ew, parents are changing baby diapers in the dining room
　　Dear Miss Salty, I own a restaurant and have for over 35 years. I am baffled at the way people think they are allowed to change Little Miss Perfect or Little Mister Perfect anywhere they feel is convenient! After having one of our customers change a dirty diaper on one...

Ask The Salty Waitress: What can I do about a really cold restaurant?
　　Dear Salty, I’m one of those people who’s more sensitive to cold than other people, so if my friends think a restaurant is a little chilly, I’m completely freezing. Now that it’s November, this marks the dreaded start of Cold Restaurant Season. No matter how many layers I wear, I...
