“Dogs are more often than not disruptive to a dining experience”

Yes there is. Not that hard to find info about them.

Meh... Any place serving alcohol, humans are more liable to do something dumb that’s going to harm somebody or cost the restaurant money.

They don’t do that anymore?

America may as well be the Bacon-Cooking Capital of the World compared to other countries. I swear, in many areas of Europe, they just boil bacon in water for 3 minutes. Doesn’t get any better south of the U.S. border, either.
