2. Eclectic restaurants that do not have any standard items on the menu. Very often out of a party of six, one person at least will be someone who has no interest in the eclectic menu. This is more of a suggestion I suppose, but if I were the owner, I would have one old fashioned dish out of every main group. Really hate to push the Goat Ossobuco on Grandpa.
3. Restaurants that advertise Sunday Brunch that do not have a Sunday Brunch Buffet, they are just are open in the late morning on Sunday. Somewhat deceiving in my opinion.
Whilst I agree with 1, I'm afraid my view is that 2 and 3 are a case of caveat emptor rather than being the restaurant's fault.
If you go to an eclectic restaurant (and I'm not sure what your definition of eclectic is) then expect a menu that comports with their theme/type of cuisine. If one of your party has no interest in that type of food, book elsewhere. You have a free choice as to where you go out to eat.
As for the buffet point, how on earth is that deceiving? You make the assumption and then get disappointed when it's wrong!
