Runner

Food runners assistance the wait-staff and are required to deliver food to the tables. Since they are the last ones to look at the dish before presenting to a customer, it is of the utmost importance that they know what the dish is supposed to look like. They may be required to answer questions about the food and the facility's service while serving the food. Runners are also required to perform some secondary tasks such as cleaning tables, bussing tables, filling glasses, at times taking orders and even assisting the kitchen staff in maintaining their work areas. Food runners need to be extremely efficient and detail oriented along with a courteous manner as they are always in direct contact with the customer.
