What does "make it small" mean in this context?

Waiter: What would you like to order?
Kate: I'd like ham and eggs, please.
Waiter: How do you want your eggs?
Kate: What are my choices?
Waiter: Scrambled, sunny side-up, over-easy, and over-hard.
Kate: Scrambled, please. Hm, no, I think I want sunny side-up.
Waiter: Is there anything else?
Kate: One orange juice. MAKE IT SMALL, please.

Thanks.

It's an idiomatic way of saying, "I'd like it to be small," or "I want it to be small," or "I want a small one, though."

Some would say: "Make it a small."
