And I’m not talking about fast-food joints like macdonald’s. I’m talking about your everyday restaurants, especially asian restaurants where they have many dishes. How do they take your order and have it cooked and out in a reasonable timeframe? (Less than 10mins waiting time)

Prep work.
Suppose you go to a Chinese restaurant and order Shrimp fried rice. You need cooked rice, peeled and de-veined shrimp, chopped vegetables, soy sauce, and some beaten eggs. You do all the prep work during the day, and put all the prepped ingredients into separate containers, and wait. Just before the dinner rush starts, you put the wok on the fire so that it’s warm, but not too hot.
When the order finally comes in, you crank up the heat, add the ingredients, and have the order done in less than 10 minutes.
And, many dishes have the same basic ingredients. Suppose the Chinese restaurant also offers pork fried rice. The only different ingredient is the pork. And so on.
