What is the average earnings for servers in fine dinning restaurants?
Depends on the place, city, and clientele. In Vegas you have fine dining servers who make anywhere from 50k up to over 100k. Plus a lot of them are union jobs and they can retire from them after 20 years. Hard to believe. I have a lot of friends who have chosen this life instead of other things they really wanted to do. I know a guy who had a Law Degree and Gave up his job as a D.A. to pursue fine dining. He said he made 110k last year but he admits he has sold his soul to the place.
