TheTimeTraveler, I agree.

A new venture can't correct items not up to expectations unless they hear about it upfront. Rather than ask for salt, let the server know why you want the salt and what could maybe be improved.

I have always felt that restaurants deserve at least one second chance before I would write them off.

Even if you simply stopped by for a quick visit, speak with a manager and in a calm manner, let them know what didn't meet your expectations. Hopefully, you will get an explanation and an invitation to return.

It's too easy in today's social media world to make complaints without giving the restaurant a chance to improve.
