I just called the local pizza place (only place with good wings in this state!) to order. Well the guy took my order and asked my address. So I gave it to him....well I barely finished giving him my street name and number and he goes 'nuh-uh! where have you been!?! Haven't heard from ya...we need the, um, I mean we love hearing your voice!' I told him not to worry that I haven't been on a diet or a pizza fast!

We used to have people that would order same day, same time, same thing for years in a row. Kind of funny how well you get to know somebody like that. Great for business though!

At the local Sonic drive-in, they usually know our order will have a XL diet coke (for mom). Used to be a root beer for me until one day I changed it - and they let me know about it! There is also a local chinese place where we are well known. They usually get mom her hot tea without asking.

I've had this happen a local pizza place as well.The best one happened a while back. When we were in college, my husband and I, along with our friends used to go into a pizza place near the school a lot. We never become close with the workers there, we would just order our pizza and go sit down. Five years after graduation, my husband and I went in there, and the woman working rushed over to ask how we were and to catch up on our lives. I thought that was so sweet.

When we go to our favorite Mexican restaurant, the waiters will rush over to the greeter to have them seat us in there area(we tip very well for very little work). well We both order the same thing every time. He orders sweet tea no lemon andi have mine with lemon. The tacos with extra cheese, cheese dip, and beans. They all pretty much know and if i order fajitas or taco salad instead i get funny looks!
All very nice guys!

On the west side of... of... somewhere.
Back in Syracuse, my friends used to take me to a Chinese restaurant where the owner knew each of us. My second time in thtere (a few months later), they asked me if I wanted the ... which is exactly what I'd ordered the previous visit. really cool people...

It's always nice to get service like that.

I love when places have customer service like this! It's a nice touch, and one that will definitely make me a return customer.

There was a Thai restaurant I used to go to all the time in my college town. I was a vegan at the time and every time I went in the owner would come up and say, "pineapple fried rice, extra chicken, extra egg!" and run off laughing! I went back a few months ago after like a year of being away, and guess what he said, "pineapple fried rice, extra chicken, extra egg!" I love going places where they remember you!!
