Not found at some fancy white table cloth place, but Friendly's comes to mind - at least that's how I think it was done there back on the 60's-70's when my high school friends would have been working there. Think along the lines of lunch counters; a place where one server takes your order, a different server delivers it, whoever passing by refills your coffee or water, and a 4th individual cashiers. Truly a team effort.
