okay, so im just getting into the whole "dining out" thing. the thing that really confuses me is when your waiter/waitress brings you your check, how do you know theyre going to be back to get it and process it in the back somewhere, or you have to go up to a cashier yourself?

Depends on the restaurant. Most causal family style places you take your check to the cashier. Upper end places bring you a check on a little tray. Place your cash or credit card on the tray. Server will be back to get it and process your check return with your change or credit card. Important..in these days when it's so easy to become a victim of fraud, it's not a good idea to let your credit card out of your sight anywhere.

Watch the people around you when they get their check. If they pick it up then they are going somewhere to pay the bill. Most of the time the waiter/waitress will let you know that they will take care of that when you are ready.

When she brings you the check, you ask her if you should pay at the table or at the cashier.
However if she brings it on a little tray, then you know you pay at the table: you either put the money with a minimum 14% tip in the tray, or you put your credit card in it. She'll take it from there.

When you go into a resturant, notice if there is a register up front. If so, you will probably pay as you go out. Most of the time they will bring check to the table, wait a bit then pick up your money. It is normal to add their tip then.

bodily assaulting those expressing their unfastened speech rights could be punishable. i'm hoping your lover is going to penitentiary for attacking somebody purely by way of fact they anticipate transparency from the government and expressed their concepts. that's no longer a police state. what's your marine lover combating for? Socialism? in keeping with risk he could pass to a distinctive u . s . a ., sounds like he's not representing the US.

well if your eating at resturaunts like ruby tuesdays, olive garden, tgi fridays, macaroni grill, longhorns, applebees, etc they will always bring you your check then come back and collect.
if you eat somewhere like denny's, waffle house, huddle house, etc they bring you your check and you go to the register to pay.
if you eat at a buffet you pay ahead of time

They should bring you your bill, then come back and get your check, cash or credit card and return it back to you.(receipt and or change).

most restaurants have "please pat your server" or "please pay at the till" on their checks if it is somewhere you frequently go ask the your server what they prefer also look for the signs that you pay at a till such as lines of people or some sort of sign
