That's the point--many restaurants are hard to get into not because they're full but because they don't have enough help to fill to capacity. I know every time I eat at The Bob House, Canoe, etc. they aren't full but tell people they can't take reservations.

I agree. We went to Canoe with a party of 6 monday and the place was filled except for the porch downstairs which was closed. I asked my server and she said the servers would not be able to handle the additional tables.

My service was very efficient and BTW had one of my best meals I have ever had there. Additional tables with the same help definitely would have been an issue

Many students start early here in the states. Our Granddaughter going back this weekend as she is working during orientation. When we lived on Cape Cod many of the summer help were from Ireland. Really great kids happy to be here and learn first hand about our great country. Those native to the states also want to take time to relax and o some back to school shopping prior to returning to college thus they leave in mid August.
