Quote from Frasier
Martin: Isn't this great? They have the best Thousand Island dressing in town.
Frasier: I know, Dad. I saw the plaque by the cash register.
Quote from Niles
Waitress: Here we go. Three Paul Bunyans, medium rare.
Frasier: We've barely touched our salads.
Martin: Great service, huh?
Niles: With any luck, we should be completing our dining experience in less than 20 minutes.
Quote from Frasier
Waitress: If you're not ready, I could put this under the heat lamp.
Frasier: No, no. That won't be necessary, young lady. I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
Waitress: All right. Let me know if I can get you anything else.
Frasier: Yes, thank you.
Martin: You know, I don't mind you being tough on this place, but you could be a little nicer to the waitress.
Frasier: You're right. I'll apologize when she comes with the dessert. Which should be any time now.
Quote from Frasier
Martin: Sometimes there's nothing like a good steak.
Frasier: Oh, I wish this was one of those times.
Quote from Frasier
Roz: You got 30 seconds. You better get in there.
Frasier: Not yet.
Roz: Oh, no.
Frasier: Roz, are you ready?
Roz: Don't make me do this.
Frasier: Come on. We do this every Monday.
Roz: You do this every Monday. I play along.
Frasier: Come on. Who's got the best Seattle talk show?
Roz: We do! We do!
Frasier: All right!
