Rare mcatmcat Posted October 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Hello [emoji3] I was wondering how many tables or passengers are assigned to each waiter at the MDR. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted October 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2016 It depends on the table size. I would estimate that on our cruises, the waiter had between 12 -18 diners divided over several tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfcathorse Posted October 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 18, 2016 a bad review gets them a smaller section, hence less income from tips. A glowing report gets them more tables, hence a higher income. They really do depend on the results of the survey that's emailed to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvscruising2007 Posted October 18, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 18, 2016 On our last cruise our waiter had 2 10 tops and one 2 top. He was an adequate waiter but needed an attitude adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted October 18, 2016 #9 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Our last waiter was AWFUL...the ass't was fantastic, and got most of our waiter's tip! They have really decreased the passenger/staff ratio....the folks work their butts off now!...not that they didn't before, but they had better results!

UCF_Knight Posted October 19, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Our waiter last week had: 2 tables for 8 1 table for 4 4 tables for 2 So 28 seats total. We had 6:00 pm traditional dining. One of his tables for 2 was empty, but they would bring up MTD guests for him to service at that table usually at about 6:45. Our assistant waiter was servicing all of our waiter's tables plus a table for 8 and a table for 6 from another waiter. So the assistant waiter had 42 seats total.
