  1. 85% of people will pick a booth over a standard table.
  2. 71% would rather sit inside than outside.
  3. 63% order pretty much the exact same thing every time they go to a restaurant.
  4. Only 38% try to order something healthy.
  5. 41% have NEVER eaten at a restaurant alone.
  6. 35% don’t wait for everyone else’s food to come out before they start eating.
  7. 58% of people like it when the staff sings “Happy Birthday”. . . but 38% only like it if it isn’t THEIR birthday.
  8. And 6% of people get dessert every single time they go out to eat.  19% never get it.
