西餐敬酒礼仪（精选3篇）
西餐服务员服务礼仪
1、英式西餐服务(britishstyleservice)
英式西餐服务也称家庭式服务，主要适用于私人宴席。
服务员从厨房里取出烹制好的餐品，盛放在大盘里和热的空盘一起送到主人面前，由主人亲自动手切割主料并分盘，服务员充当主人的助手，将主人分好的菜盘逐一端给顾客。
各种调料、配菜都摆放在餐桌上，由顾客根据需要互相传递自取。顾客则像参加家宴一样，取到菜后自行进餐。服务员有时帮助主人切割食物，因此，必须具有熟练的切割技术和令人满意的装盘造型技巧。
英式西餐服务的气氛很活跃，也省人力，但节奏较慢，主要适用于宴会，很少在大众化的西餐厅里使用。
2、美式西餐服务(americanstyleservice)
美式西餐服务又称为"盘子服务"。食物都由厨房人员烹制好，并分别装入菜盘里，由服务员送至西餐厅，直接从客位的右侧送给每位顾客，脏盘也从右侧撤下。
美式西餐服务简单明了，速度快，人工成本很低，有利于用有限数量的服务人员为数量众多的顾客提供服务。常用于各类宴会，也是西餐厅中十分流行的一种服务方式。
3、自助西餐服务(buffetservice)
自助西餐餐是顾客支付一定量的钱后，进入西餐厅，在预先布置好的食品台上自己动手任意选菜，自己取回座位享用的一种近似于自我服务的西餐厅用餐形式。

西餐服务员服务原则：为顾客创造西餐6个M
第一个是"Menu"(菜单)
当您走进西餐馆，服务员先领您入座，待您坐稳，首先送上来的便是菜单。菜单被视为餐馆的门面，老板也一向重视，用最好的面料做菜单的封面，有的甚至用软羊皮打上各种美丽的花纹。在这里用菜单称之似有不妥，应称之为"菜谱"。
如何点好菜，我可有个绝招，我无论在国内外西餐馆吃饭，往往点的菜又好吃，又便宜，常常受到同事们称道，我的办法是，打开菜谱，看哪道菜是以饭店名称命名的，我往往取之，我深知，那位厨师也不会拿自己店名开玩笑的，所以他们下功夫做出的菜，肯定会好吃的，请大家一定要点。
涉及到点菜，看菜谱不由得使我想起近20xx年前发生在马克西姆餐厅的一件事，四位年轻的"万元户"农民走进这家豪华的餐厅。他们有了钱，想品一品法国名菜。餐厅经理和服务员欣喜异常，热情招待他们入座，并礼貌地呈上菜谱，恭敬地请他们点菜。谁料，其中一位把菜谱推到一边，不屑一顾地说："点什么菜?你们看着来，什么贵上什么，我们有的是钱!"四位农民花了近20xx元，美美吃了顿法国名菜，但也不时出了"洋相"，刀叉不知如何使，餐巾最后当了手绢用……
后来法方总经理同我谈起此事，很有感触："从这四位年轻人身上，看到中国农民确实富了，令人振奋。但是中国朋友吃西餐不看菜单，使我们很难理解。在法国，就是戴高乐、德斯坦总统吃西餐也得看菜单点菜的。这里不涉及有钱没钱的问题，因为看菜单、点菜已成了吃西餐的一个必不可少的程序，是种生活方式。"
第二个是"Music"(音乐)
豪华高级的西餐厅，要有乐队，演奏一些柔和的乐曲，一般的小西餐厅也播放一些美妙的乐曲。但，这里最讲究的是乐声的"可闻度"，即声音要达到"似听到又听不到的程度"，就是说，要集中精力和友人谈话就听不到，要想休息放松一下就听得到，这个火候要掌握好。
第三个是"Mood"(气氛)
西餐讲究环境雅致，气氛和谐。一定要有音乐相伴，有洁白的桌布，有鲜花摆放，所有餐具一定洁净。如遇晚餐，要灯光暗淡，桌上要有红色蜡烛，营造一种浪漫、迷人、淡雅的气氛。
第四个是"Meeting"(会面)
也就是说和谁一起吃西餐，这要有选择的，一定要是亲朋好友，趣味相投的人。吃西餐主要为联络感情，很少在西餐桌上谈生意。所以西餐厅内，少有面红耳赤的场面出现。
第五个是"Manner"(礼俗)
也称之为"吃相"和"吃态"，总之要遵循西方习俗，勿有唐突之举，特别在手拿刀叉时，若手舞足蹈，就会"失态"。使用刀叉，应是右手持刀，左手拿叉，将食物切成小块，然后用刀叉送入口内。一般来讲，欧洲人使用刀叉时不换手，一直用左手持叉将食物送入口内。美国人则是切好后，把刀放下，右手持叉将食物送入口中。但无论何时，刀是绝不能送物入口的。西餐宴会，主人都会安排男女相邻而坐，讲究"女士优先"的西方绅士，都会表现出对女士的殷勤。
第六个是"Meal"(食品)
我的一位美国美食家朋友曾这样说："日本人用眼睛吃饭，料理的形式很美，吃我们的西餐，是用鼻子的，所以我们鼻子很大;只有你们伟大的中国人才懂得用舌头吃饭。"我们中餐以"味"为核心，西餐是以营养为核心，至于味道那是无法同中餐相提并论的。

西餐敬酒礼仪之酒杯的拿法
盛白葡萄酒及香槟的酒杯为高脚杯，喝时拿住杯脚下面部分，手不要碰到杯身，因为白葡萄酒及香槟喝时通常是要冰冻的，而手的温度会使它温热起来。敬酒时可以用拇指、无名指和小指牢牢握住杯脚下方，中指扶着杯脚，食指轻搭在杯脚与酒杯连接处。手指尽量伸直，显现手部优美曲线。
盛红酒的酒杯杯脚较短，杯身较肥大，可以用食指和中指夹住杯角，喝时拿近杯身，手的温度有助红酒释放其香味。
在敬酒与人碰杯时，自己的杯身比对方略低时，表示你对对方的尊重。
喝酒时绝对不能吸着喝，而是倾斜酒杯，像是将酒放在舌头上似的喝。轻轻摇动酒杯让酒与空气接触以增加酒味的醇香，但不要猛烈摇晃杯子。杯底应该留有少量剩余，不可一饮而尽。
西餐敬酒礼仪之斟酒礼仪
在接受斟酒的时候，绝对不可以把酒杯拿在手里，主要是为了防止酒杯撞倒酒瓶。
在正式场合倒酒的时候，啤酒和葡萄酒都是不能手持酒杯的。但在轻松的场合，啤酒是可以手持着倒的，但要注意右手拿瓶，左手拿杯，并且右手要倾斜着倒才美观。另外，注意啤酒泡沫要与杯口齐平，不能有溢出。
按照规范来说，除主人和服务人员外，其他宾客一般不要自行给别人斟酒。如果主人亲自斟酒，应该用本次宴会上最好的酒斟，宾客要端起酒杯致谢，必要的时候应该起身站立。
如果是作为大型的商务用餐来说，都应该是服务人员来斟酒。斟酒一般要从位高者开始，然后顺时针斟。如果不需要酒了，可以把手挡在酒杯上，说声“不用了，谢谢”就可以了。这时候，斟酒者就没有必要非得一再要求斟酒。
西餐敬酒礼仪之敬酒的注意事项
1.酒类服务通常是由服务员负责将少量酒倒入酒杯中，让客人鉴别一下品质是否有误。只须把它当成一种形式，喝一小口并回答GOOD。接着，侍者会来倒酒，这时，不要动手去拿酒杯，而应把酒杯放在桌上由侍者去倒。
2.喝酒时绝对不能吸着喝，而是倾斜酒杯，像是将酒放在舌头上似的喝。轻轻摇动酒杯让酒与空气接触以增加酒味的醇香，但不要猛烈摇晃杯子。
3.此外，一饮而尽、边喝边透过酒杯看人、拿着酒杯边说话边喝酒、吃东西时喝酒、口红印在酒杯沿上等，都是失礼的行为。不要用手指擦杯沿上的口红印，用面巾纸擦较好。
4.正式的西餐宴会上，酒水是主角。酒与菜的搭配也十分严格。一般来讲，吃西餐时，每道不同的菜肴要搭配不同的酒水，吃一道菜便要换上一种酒水。
5.西餐宴会所上的酒水，一共可以分为餐前酒、佐餐酒、餐后酒三种。它们各自又拥有许多具体种类。餐前酒别名叫开胃酒。显而易见，它是在开始正式用餐前饮用，或在吃开胃菜时与之搭配的。餐前酒有鸡尾酒、味美思和香槟酒。佐餐酒又叫餐酒。它是在正式用餐时饮用的酒水。常用的佐餐酒均为葡萄酒，而且大多数是干葡萄酒或是半干葡萄酒。有一条重要的讲究，就是“白酒配白肉，红酒配红肉”。这里所说的白肉，即鱼肉、海鲜、鸡肉，吃它们是需要和白葡萄酒搭配;所说的红肉，即牛肉、羊肉、猪肉。吃这些肉的时候要用红葡萄酒来搭配。这里所说的白酒、红酒都是葡萄酒。餐后酒指的是用餐之后，用来助消化的酒水。最常见的是利口酒，又叫香酒。最有名的餐后酒，则是有“洋酒之王”的白兰地酒。
6.不同的酒杯饮不同的酒水，在每位用餐者面前桌面上右边餐刀的上方，会摆着三四只酒水杯。可依次由外侧向内侧使用，也可以“紧跟”女主人的选择。一般香槟杯、红葡萄酒杯、白葡萄酒杯以及水杯，是不可缺少的。
7.只饮香槟只喝一半，西餐用来干杯的酒，讲究只用香槟酒，而绝对不可以啤酒或其他葡萄酒滥竽充数。饮香槟干杯时，应饮去杯中一半酒为宜，当然，也要量力而行。
8.只敬酒不碰杯，还有一点要注意：在西餐宴会干杯时，人们只是祝酒不劝酒，只敬酒而不真正碰杯的。使用玻璃杯时，尤其不能碰杯。
9.不能离开座位去敬酒，在西式宴会上，是不允许随便走下自己的座位，越过他人之身，与相距较远者祝酒干杯，尤其是交叉干杯，更不允许。
10.酒度适量，不管是在哪一种场合饮酒，都要有自知之明，并要好自为之，保持风度，遵守礼仪。
11.在西餐里，祝酒干杯只用香槟酒，并且不能越过身边的人而和其他人祝酒干杯。
12.吃西餐时，不能拒绝对方的敬酒，即使自己不会喝酒，也要端起酒杯回敬对方，否则是一种不礼貌的行为。吃西餐饮酒忌讳举杯一饮而尽，文雅的饮酒是懂得品评酒的色、香、味，漫漫品味。在西餐宴席上往往是敬酒不劝酒，即使是劝酒也只是点到为止。
