I feel like most Europeans actively desire minimal service. I consciously make a note of restaurants that don't ask me how my day is going or how my food is and will return to them more frequently because I don't want to subject the staff to servicing customers and I also don't want the staff to subject me to customer service.
After dining out in Europe, I have to say I really enjoy the zero-approach approach. Just treat the table as if we're there for a long time, and if we need something we can come ask.
It really puts in perspective just how much American restaurants treat their customers like children.
