I didn't find that much of a difference between the states and Australia in terms of service. But I will admit there probably is a difference - commensense says there should be.. I just didn't really notice it, It might depend on the type of resturant you go to etc though - I don't go to places where you get "refills" and it's not like I travelled extensively while there or anything.
