This is the text, it is a dialogue and this is just one part(so it may not make sense all together)

Hola, estoy tu camarero hoy, ¿Qué quieres tomar? Nosotros tenemos las bebidas en menú con las entradas.

No problema,¿Que quieres para una entradas? Nuestra especialidad el bistec poco asado cuál es un poco picante y muy sabroso. El bistec incluye la sopa del día y un postre

Nuestra sopa del día es la sopa italiano y incluye las hierbas y las verduras.

No, la sopa del día es no picante y es poco salado, pero la sopa es no dulce. Yo pienso que la sopa es muy sabrosa. ¿Qué postre tu quieres? Nosotros tenemos el helado y el flan.

! Bueno! Tu comida vendrá en diez minutos y yo sumare la cuenta y Traeré el recibo. ¡Buen provecho!

No, yo tiene que dejar un cuenta pero tu puedes. ¿Tu recibo aquí, tienes reclamaciones?

Lo siento señor, cambiaré este recibo inmediatamente. Espero que usted me dejaras aunque yo me equivoco

thanks so much

la sopa italiana

Also I would like to know: is it acceptable to use "no" in this order? It sounds funny to me.

No, la sopa del día es no picante y es poco salado, pero la sopa es no dulce.

If you are thinking about the temporary/permanent rule for SER and ESTAR, and you thought that, since it is only for today, and that is temporary, you have to use ESTAR, think again, because that rule is the least reliable one. SER is used for definitions, identifications and absolute classifications, and ESTAR for states that don't fall into those categories. Therefore, all nouns must be used with SER, always:

Soy Lazarus
Soy professor
Soy una persona

This includes all things introduced by articles, sucha as 'un/una/unos/unas'.

Also, please remove that "nosotros". Personal pronouns like "yo", "tú", "nosotros",... are not optional in Spanish: they MUST be omitted in most cases!

And I agree with Mark: that "No problemo" from the movie "Terminator" sounds as exotic to Spanish natives as it does to English speakers, since it is not even Spanish. The word "problemo" does not exist, and we don't say "No problema" either. You have alternatives such as: "De acuerdo", "¡Cómo no!",...

I don't have time to do the whole thing, but here are a couple of suggestions:

Hola, soy su camarero hoy. ¿Que quiere tomar? ...

As a waiter, I think you would use the formal form.

"No problema" is not really correct Spanish. I know we use "no problem" in English, but not in Spanish. You might say something like "Como no" or "En sequida".
