my husband will start to make duck impersonations with his hand, this will rise into the air until it reaches the full height of his arm. He is very tall so it is way above the heads of seated diners. Then he will begin to quack and the quack will get louder until someone comes running. Usually the duck will get about to his shoulder before we get service. If he has to begin the quacking we will leave the restaurant. However, this method may be crass but it has NEVER failed.
At first I thought Betty was having a flashback to her youth. (both are blond, same kind of nose). .If the server doesnt see me standing – then we leave. Convincing the rest of the table to leave is usually easy.
If I need to get somewhere or I get bored waiting, I’ll just go up to the front desk. Thankfully, I’ve never been to a restaurant where it took so long that I had to go to the manager and point out that we could have left without paying while waiting for our bill because nobody ever came by… sometimes they just need good motivation. ;-)

My wife just goes to get tea or water for us. She’s even gone into the kitchen to talk to the chef about how to cook a steak medium rare.

I just get up and go physically find a member of the waitstaff, the hostess, or the manager.
it works, and works fast.
