With some restaurants/pubs (namely a few on 17th), they seemingly only hire for looks. And judging by the service provided, the training also happens on the spot, and accuracy is considered secondary when performing the job. And they expect their customers to forgive everything so long as there is something good to look at.
In terms of pubs with excellent service (as well as some pretty sweet lookers) the Irish pubs around town are generally great I've found. Limmericks, Kilk, Seanachie are some of my favourite quick in and out pubs that can also provide the whole package.
But I prefer a waitress who can make small talk and be friendly, yet doesn't sound like she's coming on to every table of guys she serves, but just is pleasant. Doesn't have to be perfect about everything, but at least show you're trying to provide the best service you can.
