A day at the restaurant

The l Last Saturday I went out with my friends. We weren't sure where we could dine but finally we (you can also omit the “we” in this situation) decided to go to "Mariens" restaurant. When we arrived, there my friend tell to told the waiter, “There are four of us at the for dinner," so the waiter accompanied escorted to us to the table which was nearby the (or “a”) restroom.

The restaurant was fantastic. (you could also use an exclamation point (!) to emphasize just how great the restaurant was) On the table there was a red candle, a big tablecloth, and all utensils: forks, napkins, glasses...

I wanted to dinner have (or “eat”) a main course and a good dessert but before we needed to see the Menu and wine list first. The waiter gave to us the menu and we chose a salad as the main course and a pizza. (Quite often, although not always, a salad would precede the main course).

A friend ordered on medium well done meat and it was delicious! But I prefer meat well done.

Later, I ask waiter if he could had the check. We put twelve euros per person and we left five euros tip.

Another nicely written article Noelia.  I can see improvements every day in your writing.  Well done.

This is well written and clear. There are a few mistakes here and there. Sometimes there are better verbs to use than the ones you have chosen. I provided some options when there are many verbs that can be used. Overall: very good!
