first of all OP said Mallory was not busy...if they had told the group we are sorry but the outdoor area has been booked in 30 minutes I could see that for an excuse....when we dine out I specifically ask for outdoor area if available and if indoor I would like a booth....if I was ever told ....sorry but the next server up is not assigned to there, I would say have a nice day and leave
but you may have had a wait and not realized why. For instance, there are many times people complain that there are empty tables but can't be seated. They usually don't say "We don't have a server for that area," or "That area already has enough customers for the server to handle." They just tell you there will be a wait, or that you can't be seated there.
