I tend

1. The food (of course). Otherwise, what's the point?

2. Ambience: clean, quiet, uncrowded, tasteful, subdued lighting.

3. Service: courteous, no long delays.

Major negatives: Built-in "gratuities", gimmicks, gotchas, arrogance.


I tend to patronize restaurants where a meal is $35 to $100 per
person, sometimes a bit more, so I expect a little more.
