How to Say ‘At your service’ in Mexican Spanish

A sus órdenes

ah soos OR-deh-nes

[ah soos OR-deh-nes]

💬 Usage Tip: sus here is the polite "your" that goes with usted, and it becomes sus rather than su because órdenes is plural. Compare su orden "your order".

🇲🇽 In Mexico: In Mexico you'll hear this constantly from restaurant hosts, waiters and shop staff, often as they finish helping you. It sounds warm and courteous rather than servile, and a simple gracias is a fine reply.
