I'm surprised.
I had lunch there last Tuesday with a party of 12. We were seated easily, even though there'd been no notice that we were coming. There were two other parties of about the same size nearby in the same dining room.
Our party was handled expertly by one - yes, one - waitress. She didn't screw up the drink orders nor the meal orders. I don't know that anyone asked for extras, but I'd have been very startled if there'd been a charge.
And, there was no question when she learned we wanted separate checks. They were provided smilingly, and correctly. A 20% gratuity was built in. We had a grand time, with good food and fine service.
