re: Offshoot- What is the max time you will wait for a server

Ten minutes and I am walking out.

I don't know if I would walk out, if it's a place I or my company really want to go. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. That being said, not being greeted promptly is a clear indication that it's going to be a difficult dining experience, unless the waiter really makes a comeback. If the rest of the experience is as bad as the untimely greeting, the server will really not like the tip they get when the meal is done.
