When you have finished a meal how long should you wait until you find someone to get you your bill?

Question

Whats the best way to go about trying to get someone? Just grab someone as they go past? When should you expect your bill? How long to wait before it becomes just poor service?

Answer 1

you should most likely expect your bill wants your waiter comes back and you are at the end of your meal , but if your waiter doesnt come by dont be sgy to ask another waiter to grab your waiter that isnt around .

Answer 2

When they take your plates after the last course you want, ask for the bill.

It's poor service after exactly 3.7 minutes!

Answer 3

If your server doesn't come and give you your bill in a reasonable amount of time. It is fine if you stop another server and let them know that you need your server to give you your bill.

My tip would reflect the lack of service that I received. It it is excessively busy that day I would be a little understanding. Just a little.
