The reason why I'm asking is because lots of times, we eat in restaurants where the food is not really what I like. But I am okay with the food listed under salads and appetizers. One time I wasn't sure if I could just order an appetizer (chicken wings). And I ordered a hamburger and it wasn't like the kind like in McDonald's and I couldn't finish it and it wasn't good because it didn't taste anything like McDonald's and the fries were too much and they took a long time getting me some ketchup because my fries were cold by then and I couldn't eat anymore.

It is perfectly acceptable to order only salads and/or appetizers. Order what will make you happy, not what you think someone wants you to order.

Well, sure. No restaurant is going to shoot you if you only order appetizer and salad. But really, please try to be a bit more adventurous! Only McDonald's tastes like McDonald's, and that's A Good Thing. You're missing out on a world of absolutely DELICIOUS food, and I don't believe that you don't like anything on the menu. You just aren't prepared to keep an open mind and try it. Give it a go!! It's almost all delicious, and if it's not, just don't finish it. The restaurant won't care anyway.

It is okay to order just an appetizer or a salad. The waiters are use to it so they won't even think twice about it. Sometimes they are so big they could be a whole meal anyway.

It's definately ok. My daughter orders an appetizer for her meal all the time because she is wicked picky, and will usually only order potato skins and boneless chicken wings.

it sure is ok. wings are listed in alot of places as appetizers, but in many resataurants like hooters, they are a main dish. as for the salad, i do the same thing. why order something you don't like. go for what you like to eat off the manu. i do

Of course its okay! I do it all the time, not necessarily because I don't like the food, but maybe because I'm not all that hungry! If you feel really self-conscious about it, you could always say that you just wanted something small!

It's perfectly fine. I do the same thing. Sometimes a salad and an order of calamari is just fine for me. That's a whole meal for me! Nobody gives me guff for it. They shouldn't be judgmental about it.

You pay for it, so you better enjoy it. It is never wrong to order what you like to eat. The restaurant doesn't know your dietary needs and you should. Eat what you want to!

Of course it's ok! You can eat what-ever you want to, when-ever you want to! Just make sure you enjoy!
