You play, you pay.
How many restaurants have you recently worked in? If you complain to a server about your dinner being late and use a profanity to describe the delay (remember it was about the delay, not swearing personally about the FA), you would end up with your dinner comped instead of being thrown out of the restaurant. No restaurant manager I know is going to throw out a calm customer who is justifiably annoyed by the lack of good customer service. Even better, I can't imagine any manager calling the police in such a situation. The cops would just laugh.
