I would get the menu and the employee handbook or procedures/ information from that restaurant and actually use those in the class.
Would also get some other related materials so that the focus of the class isn't too narrow and they could transfer skills elsewhere too.
I've recently been doing impromptu role-plays using real menues from real restaurants here in El Paso.  It has been excellent.

Hello. NYU's Dept of Tesol has been 'hired' for free to work with restaurant
employees of Tavern on The Green in NYC. Does anyone know of restaurant ESP
that will work for low beginners to intermediates. And, the teachers who
will be doing the training, volunteers, have very little experience.

Any help appreciated. I will pass it to the colleague in charge.
