Restaurant Goers!

... I'd say ambience (which includes lighting, I would think).

I have friends who won't go to some otherwise decent places because they have garish diner lighting...
 
Surprisingly Vinylgroover has not yet chimed in on this, a Velvett thread. So, i will try and say something along the lines of vinylgroover's usual style in such situations:

I think that the most important thing a restaurant should have is lots of foxy ladies that look exactly like the one and only Velvett. Also, I have a humongous cock and I'm very skillful with it.

3 G - Seating arrangement
4 H - Type of seating and comfort

My g/f and I started going to a new restaurant every other week together...our husbands like to eat at the same old places which is fine, but we like to venture out so it works out well that we do it together. It's our girls night out, it usually starts out with a stop at Starbucks, then off for some shopping, and finally dinner.

You left off one very important part here...the bar area and martini menu! We usually spend a good 3 hrs. having our dinner so comfortable seating is really important. She's nearly vegetarian so above average quality and selection of foods are a must. My food doesn't normally have to be fussed over presentation wise, but if it's a higher end place, then it should really be better than average. We like different atmospheres...sometimes we'll pick a quiet dark place where we can just hide out and other times we want a lively atmosphere and will spend time at the bar. I don't like inattentive staff, but I don't want someone to be watching my every bite either. Their appearance doesn't matter much as long as they're clean!

C - Presentation of food

A word on righteous food presentation methods, I once read about a very avant-guade styling authentic sushi house in Japan, whom would serve there entire platter of sushi and sashimi on top of a beautiful naked woman. Probably the only real time a woman can wreak of tuna and still be delicious. In my opinion you should seriously try and run with that idea.

QUALITY OF FOOD IS PARAMOUNT.

Chances are if the restaraunt has gone to the trouble of making DAMNED SURE that their food is top notch (doesn't have to be visually stunning, though that is a VERY NICE "to have") then I highly doubt that they will negate any of the other details ie, friendliness and competence of staff, cleanliness and overall ambience of the place, etc.

Think about it... You could eat meat loaf and mashed potatoes in a "hole in the wall" but if the food leaves you with a VERY PLEASANT experience than somehow everything else will seem better. If the food is crap - regardless of how much the waiter kissed your ass or how pretty the wall paper was, YOU WILL LEAVE LITERALLY WITH A BAD TASTE IN YOUR MOUTH AND A FEELING AS THOUGH YOU HAD BEEN TAKEN.

I may not be able to eat much or even enjoy the food that I can consume anymore (because it will always bring me some degree of discomfort) but DAMMIT I LOOOOOOOVE THE TASTE OF GOOD FOOD IN MY MOUTH!!! So if it's gonna hurt me AFTER I eat it, then motherfucker it had better be good going down!

:D
 
IMO quality of food and ambience go hand in hand if either are lacking to any degree then the experience is degraded somewhat.
