Would you date someone who works at your favorite place?

So I like going to this restaurant. I've been going for 8 years and for the past 2 years going once a month or once every 2 months. I made it a habit of going there around the same time and ordering the same items. Most of the time, I'm served by a different waiter. I have trouble cutting up my food, so I ask the waiters for help. The waiter serving my table was nice. He started asking me questions about what I was watching and if I could recommend him some things to watch. He asked me about things I like to do and I answered. I believe he stayed at my table too long talking to me because another employee put his hand on his shoulder and tried to guide him away. When he came back to me, he started asking more questions about my day and what I was going to do after lunch. The same person came over to the table to guide him away again. It was probably his manager, because the third time the waiter came over, the guy came with him and stood there watching him cut the meat for me. He still talked to me a little bit, but I tried to keep it short because I could see the manager eyeing him every time he stopped at my table. I could have given him my number. He was really cute and sweet, but I thought about if it didn't work out. Would I have to avoid my favorite place?
It would be awkward for me if he served me after a failed talking or dating stage. I wasn't ready to date or have a new friend either, so I left saying goodbye.
