So why would the other restaurant not be "full-service"?

@ Judith, in reference to your question below, no I don't think you will want to "demote" the restaurant to "ordinary" - I am sure the Hotel doesn't think of themselves in such terms. You might try to take your terms from the Hotels descriptions - since they are writing the employment referral papers. It might be much easier and clearer than you are making it. Look again at the Hotels webpage. Perhaps you can get a clearer picture of the different places where one can eat.

Looking at the Hotel Webpage, one can see that they have an area that they call an "à la carte" room, there is also a banquett hall for special events and a restaurant. I tried to open the menu but I had no luck.

I don't think we're really answering Judith's question,Ist das Restaurant vielleicht der Bereich, in dem nur "Menü" serviert wird? I would say the answer is probably yes, and you could say "set-menu restaurant."

Judith, I think you might want to go back to the customer and ask them what exactly it is that they did in their job. It sounds as if she/he were used in different service situations -
We usually use à la carte when we order something that doesn't come with the anything else - meaning we would order a steak for example and then order the side dishes which would each cost something separately. The other type of menu would be the one where you order a dish and there is for example potatoes or rice, salad or vegetable, etc included in the price.
