8. Too easy to get ripped off, too easy to spend $40 on two drinks, too silly that you have to scrutinize every drinks specials board for the fine print, too rude that not once but twice at dinner we were placed at tiny tables for two in the dead center of a restaurant's traffic pattern for servers with no apology.
