Complete at least 30 minutes before doors open. Walk the entire dining area. Check restrooms last so they're fresh when guests arrive.
A daily opening checklist for front of house managers and lead servers to prepare the dining room for service. Covers the sequence of tasks that must be completed before the first guests arrive — cleaning and inspection, table and chair setup, place settings, lighting and ambiance, POS readiness, restroom checks, and host stand preparation.
A well-executed FOH opening ensures every guest receives the same standard from the first table to the last. This checklist prevents the rushed last-minute fixes that lead to visible problems during service.
