I wonder if spl170 has a different perception of what a "community table" is than we do. There are two models I'm aware of, Good 'N Plenty, and Pho 75.

At Good 'N Plenty (Bird-in-Hand, PA), everyone sits around in a circle and shares family-style side orders. It's a community meal, as well as a community table.

At Pho 75, the community tables are like townhouses: The seats are all side-by-side, but every party is having their own private meal. I'm pretty sure most of what has been discussed on this thread follows the Pho 75 model.

Cheers,

Rocks.

Like Pho 75, but in a restaurant scene, where the tables are part of the dinning atmosphere . You go into places that have community tables and I think that it is a hit or miss type of thing if you are a single dinner, of if your with a group of people hanging around the bar. Curious are most people turned off by a community table in a regular restaurant scene i.e. bar, tables for 2,4,6 ect. with a community table? Is it a good extension of bar dinning, but not necessarily at the bar?

anyone know of area restaurants with community tables and what are your thoughts. Going out with a friend and curious to see what it is about?
