Big parties are exponentially more difficult and time-consuming to serve than smaller ones.

i don't think this is true. it wouldn't surprise me if the returns to scale aren't significant, but i'd be shocked if it was on average more difficult to serve a table of 12 than 3 tables of 4.

This is totally true. Big parties, are 10x harder to wait on: harder to get people's attention, harder logistically, harder to make sure the kitchen gets everything right, etc.

Is it harder to serve one table with 10 people or 5 tables of 2 people?
