In the United States, the silent service code is a way for a diner to communicate with servers during a meal to indicate that the diner is finished. This is intended to prevent any embarrassing situations where the server might remove a plate of food prematurely.
To tell a server that they have finished, a diner places their napkin to the left of their plate, and places all of their utensils together in a "4-o'clock" position on their plate.
Utensils crossed on a plate signify that a diner is still eating.
If a diner must leave during the meal, they should place the napkin on your chair to avoid any confusion.
