No, not at all. "Tôi" is the most neutral pronoun among all Vietnamese pronouns. It only makes you sound formal. You will never sound impolite using "tôi" even if the waiter is a bit older than you. However, if you're talking to a much older man than you, let's say 10 or 20 years older, I highly recommend addressing yourself as "em" or "con". Good luck with your learning, John 🙂 Christina
Vietnam people will know you are a foreigner, so they will accept “tôi”. In some cases they will correct you with positive behavior. So don’t worry and enjoy saying/speaking . 👍

Is it considered impolite to use "Tôi" when ordering food if the waiter is older than you?

Sorry but I have a question if I said ”cho toi mot bat pho ” it is wrong ?
How would I order a bowl of phở with vegetable broth instead of chicken?
You mean phở for vegetarians? If so, you must go to a vegetarian restaurant (nhà hàng chay) and order phở chay. "Cho anh/ chị/ em một tô phở chay."
