There’s no need to repeat what you just asked for, glance around the table with that “help!” look, or stare uncomprehendingly at the waiter as if he hadn’t got your order.
The three términos are roughly equivalent, so that bien cocido means well-done; tres cuartos (three quarters) means medium; and medio would be rare—more or less.
In fancy restaurants, where you probably expect to be served higher quality meat, the tendency appears to be to err on the raw side of what the customer orders, so to avoid the embarrassment of sending the food back for additional cooking —with the added awkwardness of insisting that the others around you eat before theirs goes cold— it’s well to aim for one término above.
That way you can avoid the fate of the Texan who ordered his meat medium —medio— only to exclaim when the food was served: “I’ve seen a steer wounded worse’n that, and live!”
