DINING EXPERIENCE OBSERVATION



An invisible guessing game between guests and server:  

- Servers unsure when to take order: “rushed” if too soon, “ignored” if too late.  

- Guests struggle to signal for service: distracted from their conversation trying to catch a server’s attention.


Ambient lighting at restaurants can be too dim to read the menu comfortably.
