Another word used instead of 'waiter' could be the French term, garçon, though this is only used to summon a waiter, not to describe them, and unless you are speaking French, or are in a French-speaking area, using the term garçon this way could well be considered pretentious.

Wait staff(er), table staff(er), table attendant(s), are other terms used instead of waiter. Also used occasionally is waitperson, though this has a clumsy appearance.

The term waiter is not gender-specific; it refers to either male or female waiters, however the term waitress is still sometimes used to describe a female waiter.

When in doubt, it's appropriate to use the term waiter.
