We have not been there since they changed the layout, so it does sound better now. Our issue was when we (DW, 2 DDs and myself) would order from different stations and while the rest of the family sat down I would be standing, looking and listening for when the food was ready. So if a DD just had Mac-n-cheese they would give it to us right away and she would be eating while the rest of us waited for our orders to be ready. We learned to stagger our orders, so that they were ready closer together, but that meant going back and forth as well. We were also not a fan of the surcharge and then waiting for your hostess to refill your drinks, because you could not do it yourself.
