GUANGZHOU, China (NBC) - A restaurant in southern China is attracting customers with a novelty straight out of "The Jetsons."

A robot waiter definitely makes the meal unique.

While customers enjoy the experience, the robot has some limitations. It moves pretty slowly and is only able to carry about one pound.

On the other hand, a steaming hot dish doesn't bother the bot.

The robot was created by the restaurant's owner, who has been intrigued by robots since he was a kid.
