Definitions

Tacked onto a number to describe a table's size. A four-top seats four, a six-top seats six. The whole restaurant communicates seating this way: 'seat the four-top in section 3', 'we've got a ten-top coming at 8'. Bigger tops mean bigger checks and bigger headaches for the kitchen.
“Heads up, ten-top just walked in — they want one check.”
