A waiter or waitress is only able to handle so many tables at a time, if they have low staffing during non busy hours some tables may remian empty as there is no one to cover that table.
I am guessing because of staffing.
Some servers cant handle the extra
I rarely go when they're busy and have never waited. Maybe you just have an inattentive hostess. Why don't you ask her that question?
