πŸ“š What textbooks teach

“μ‹€λ‘€ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€, 주문을 λ°›μœΌμ‹œκ² μ–΄μš”?”
(Excuse me, would you take my order?)

βœ… What Koreans actually say

μ—¬κΈ°μš”! πŸ™‹

Excuse me! (to call a server) β€” used 99% of the time

이거 μ£Όμ„Έμš”. πŸ‘†

I’ll have this, please. β€” just point at the menu!

λ§›μžˆμ–΄μš”! πŸ˜‹

This is delicious! β€” Koreans love hearing this

πŸ’‘ Pro tip

Koreans almost never say “μ‹€λ‘€ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€” in a restaurant. It sounds overly formal and a bit awkward. Just shout “μ—¬κΈ°μš”!” β€” everyone does it, and it’s perfectly polite.
