I agree with the OP. Most restaurants will guide you to a table, but will let you sit where you want. I would not return to one that didn't. And, if the restaurant is not very busy, I don't like it when they try to seat people in one section instead of spreading them out. I try to go to restaurants when they are not busy so the noise level is lower. There is plenty of competition in the restaurant business, and I think they should be trying to satisfy the customers, not the servers.
