Recognize your best customers and reap the benefits

It seems like articles and news are always focusing on negative serving experiences and rude customers, but there are plenty of well-mannered, respectful diners who are more than happy to follow polite restaurant etiquette and tip well. Don’t you think they deserve some recognition?

An idea put forth by iamwaitress.com calls for certificates of recognition to be given to tables who show excellent restaurant behavior. They could contain a gift certificate as well, but I don’t think that’s entirely necessary to get the point across that you appreciate their polite business.

Doesn’t that sound like a great idea?
