Ok, rant over.
I hope you wanted to like this post.
+1. Another issue I have is when someone complains about the price (e.g. too pricey). With all the information available about restaurants and their related prices, why would someone complain "after the fact"? If someone is dissatisfied with the food, that is a legitimate complaint and can usually be addressed with the server or restaurant manager.
