The period of time from when your server asks to take your order and you say you need more time, until the server actually returns to your table to take your order.
Server: "May I take your order?"
Megan: "I'm not ready. Can you come back in 2 minutes?"
Server: "Of course. Take your time."
5 minutes later when everyone has been ready to order:
Dylan: "We're in the penalty box now. Is the server ever coming back?"
Megan: "I'm not ready. Can you come back in 2 minutes?"
Server: "Of course. Take your time."
