Our golf group used to avoid Cane Garden because they would not seat us until everyone was there. We were hot and thirsty and frustrated because we had to wait. So, we went elsewhere. Later, I got caught in an embarassing situation when I was in the first group that finished and went to a restaurant to tell them that we had 20 people coming for lunch. They pushed together tables and set up menus and utensils for 20. After another 30 minutes, there was only two of us. Finally, more drifted in advising that one or two in each foursome had decided to skip lunch. We wound up with only 12. The restaurant was not unpleasant, but they were not pleased either. So, I can understand why some places make you wait until everyone arrives.
