I assume these are the same devices some restaurants use to tell you when your table is ready?

Honestly, I'd prefer to be texted - no need to pass around a hot potato.

And I prefer not to give my telephone number. I guess it is better to set up a display for the ready order numbers and/or an announcement.

that's why we need to stop treating phone numbers as personal identifiers... nobody in the world would dream of using IPv6 addresses as personal identifiers

to this point you (everybody, really) should have a burner phone number
