Turn-around

What does it mean by turn-around as in following sentence?

Does it mean "the time from which a customer enters the restaurant to the time when one is leaving the place"? Given the context as shown below;

Many of the city's best chefs, Mr Ferrer-Salat included, have responded by opening bistros that offer much lower prices, yet retain much of the style and finesse found in their Michelin-listed restaurants.

The turn-around in the bistros is quicker; a meagre one hour sitting, but being able to adapt is essential for anyone who wants to survive the recession, Mr Ferrer-Salat says.

Thanks in advance,

Yes, but the emphasis is not so much on the customer leaving as on a new one coming in and filling the table.
