Practice proper phone etiquette

Sometimes while dining out, you might have to take an important phone call. However, it's best to leave the table and go outside or somewhere quiet, where you're not disturbing your fellow diners or the tables around you. Also, put the phone down when the server comes to take your order. Nothing is more disrespectful than ignoring them or not acknowledging them when they're there to take care of you.
