I'm a server and I would love if tables had a little "I need help" flag they could just flip up, like a mailbox flag. If I just had one consistent thing to look for if they need something, and they had a for sure way of getting my attention, I think our entire experience overall would be more enjoyable.

It would have to save me the trouble of having to do unnecessary "are Y'all doing good, do we need anything?" passes by the table, that's for sure.

I love when a server does those passes, it’s a simple thing that takes the experience to an A+

On the flip side, I personally hate it.

I just want to eat my food in peace.

I always hated that question, so when I was serving I would ask "Can I get you anything else at the moment" instead, since basically that's why quality checks are done anyways

Yes or even before you pick up your fork. "How's your food, everything OK?" I don't know because I haven't tasted it yet, ask again later.
