How does a server hostess typically collaborate with servers and kitchen staff during busy shifts?

A Server Hostess plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth communication between the front-of-house and kitchen teams. During busy periods, the hostess manages the flow of guests by coordinating with servers to assign tables based on availability and server capacity.
