Kids running around is the worst. One time two kids were so bad, I got up and told the mother it wasn't McDonald's and asked her to seat her kids. It was terrible. I guess the right thing would have been to tell the manager.

But here's the absolute worst: When you pay with cash and the wait person asks you if you "need" change! If that isn't the most rude thing, then I don't know what is.
Well now, I MUST disagree with you about "do you need change"? Make YOUR needs clear regarding change. I usually say "keep the change" or simply say "yes". They are just trying to expedite things in a quick manner. Sometimes certain wait staff is not trained with the "correct manner of sentence structure". Perhaps "would you like change" is more appropriate. I know there is a lot of training for the wait staff at Bonefish. It shows. Thank you Bonefish staff.
