That restaurant lost in many ways..1) no meals got ordered at that time, the people all left - cost, at least $20 - $30; 2) sounds like those people don't intend to go back ever and won't encourage their friends to go, either; 3)

Like I said before, serve smaller portions with a reasonable price and there is no need to split.

Most people I know enjoy a good portion and would like to take it home for the next day lunch or for they kids. And there are a lot of people they are hungry and eat a normal portion and not a half. This your personal eating style not was most people like.

Sorry but your calculating skills are not correct.
Double people using bathroom, using plates and silver ware and the room's AC (people heating the room up) but paying only half price (share) it's the same for the owner?
