The food could be delivered by miniature train to your booth... call it the Willie Green Express...

Railroad Pizza.
My kids loved it when they were small (20 yrs ago).
It went out of business.
My kids always want to go to that restaurant...

Tysons Mall (not the Galleria) outside DC has a sushi bar with a conveyor belt that does just that.
When I get home I’ll post pics. It’s neat. But the important thing to realize is that all the components are out there to allow restaurants to cut staff by up to 80%. Once the tipping points in terms of wage inflation are passed, they WILL be implemented and there won’t be any going back.
Sushi restaurants in Japan already deliver food by conveyor belt. You just pluck off whatever you want and the bill is reckoned by the number of color-coded plates that are accumulated in the course of the meal.
