Quiet dining would be found in a nursing home. Complaints about The Villages tend to contain I or Me. Most of the complaints about The Villages are the very reasons We chose this wonderful place as our final home.

There's a few different types of noise though. Some would warrant complaints. Some, maybe not.
Fun/happiness/enjoyment = nothing to complain about, in a restaurant that celebrates celebrations. In an intimate romantic setting, that party of 10 celebrating the hole in one on a par 5, maybe a bit over the top in that setting.
Bad accoustics: if you can hear the person 5 tables away talking about his gall bladder surgery to his neighbor over a cup of coffee, while you're trying to enjoy your scungili, then it's probably bad accoustics. Or, it might be...
Myopia and inattention/inability to care about one's surroudings: a person who knows they are loud, because people have told her she's loud, but she doesn't care and will raise her voice anywhere, anytime, to say anything at all, and to hell with what anyone else thinks or what anyone else is trying to do. The "cell phone talker" falls into this category, but they are only one of many.
