Whats one thing that can really annoy you at a restaurant?

Question

Anything at all! thanks!

Answer 1

Its a revolving door people! What came first, the bad restaurant or the bad customers that ate at that restaurant?

My dislikes are

1. Poor food

2. Cell phones

3. Poor service

Remember everybody has their limits, so those bad servers most likely got that way from dealing with "rude" and "over demanding" customers. Please keep this one thing in mind, if you have a problem while dinning, you should not always expect a "free" meal. These are not soup kitchen here, it is a business. Sometimes a free meal has to be done but, rarely. Management has many other way to try to make your problem disappear.
So, don't act like babies!

Answer 2

Bad Food at a restaurant is the one thing that can really annoy me.

Answer 3

People that go to restaurants to find things that annoy them and don't go to restaurants to eat. If the place is a dump (unclean) or the staff is rude don't eat there. Go somewhere else. Go somewhere you enjoy the food and can spend quality time with your dinning partner(s). Research... research... research. If you don't got "word of mouth" sources try some some the links below.
Good luck.

Answer 4

the first thing that is annoying is the parents that let their children do whatever they want like open the sugar packets...what are you thinking do you think they get refilled on there own... and those guest that are more than happy to come in on their cell phones.hello the restraints are there to help you with your meals costumer service is not standing there to wait for you to get off your phone ..turn it off! and just what are people thinking, people live off those tips that you think you are being kind and giving..if they worked for it they deserve it but quit thinking your better then everyone we all work for someone one person is not any better than the next.....and yes if you order food Togo you tip they took time out of what they were doing to either pack it put your order in or something, they sometimes get paid just as much as a waitress or waiter..

Answer 5

Bad or no response if there is a problem or concern with the service or food. If there is a problem it should be made right and the food free of charge or I won't return. I am not picky I rarely have a problem but I can't stand it on the few occasions when I have had a problem and the resolution has been weak or nonexistent.

Answer 6

The one thing that really annoys me at a restaurant is how the waiters/waitresses are now trained to sit down next to you at the table when they take your order and even are allowed to take some of your food (ex.frenchfries). ah, I don't think so. Your job is to take my order, not become all chummy!!!

Answer 7

okay, I went to the Outback Steakhouse one time, and the waiter sat at my table while he took our order. That was really annoying. I observed other servers doing the same as I ate dinner. I wont go there anymore.. ..what idiot in that company came up with that idea needs to take a vacation.

Answer 8

The one thing I do not enjoy when I am going out is when a couple brings their newborn baby who is crying and screaming. I know and understand that these couples need a night out and often cannot hire a babysitter but still...People are going out to relax and de-stress. They do not need to sit through their whole meal listening to a screaming baby.

Answer 9

About the restaurant--bad quality in food

the service--slow to refill the drinks

atmosphere--smoke smell in the non smoiking section--smoke in general actually it shouldn't be allowed.

Answer 10

Bad service. (From a bartender who can't get a drink order right to the server who doesn't know the daily specials let alone explain the menu, to the busboy who doesn't keep an eye on water or bread needs.)
