if it’s fast food or like a diner sure but if i have to reserve a table for one then hell no lmao
Depends on the place. If it’s casual or they have a bar, then I’ll eat there alone without even thinking twice about it. I would feel kind of weird getting table service at a nicer place alone, though. At that point, I’d just get food to go.
I feel like a lot of the experience of going to nicer places like that is the atmosphere, and that’s something that should be shared with company.
I can be alone for pretty extended periods of time and not feel weird abt it
But idk what the purpose of going to a restaurant by yourself would be bc for me personally it's purely a social occasion, but if u rly enjoy going to restaurants for just the experience itself why wouldnt u go
Like i wouldnt miss out on a concert i rly wanna go to just bc others cant/dont wanna come with me
Would rather get that s*** to go cuz it feels like a waste of time and money to go in there alone. I eat pretty fast when im by myself so no point in going through that extra s***.
Extremely normal here in NYC. People have s*** to do and have to eat.
People who NEED other people to do s*** with them are weirdos.

“Can I make a reservation for 1 please”
I don’t see the point. Did it once and was too occupied with looking weird and lonely. If I just wanted some food I could order it or take it home.
especially for lunch
Yeah but if you’re on lunch and just got to stay local that’s different
Doing this while facetiming someone far away who goes alone to a restaurant there too tho
Not weird at all. Sometimes there is a special peace in just doing things alone.
Tbh just like anything you usually do by yourself, you can eat at a restaurant by yourself if you exhibit boss energy and dont give af
If you walk up to the waiter like "Uhhhhh table fo -fo - for one please??? " you are gonna look like a sad piece of s***
but if you're a boss you will look like this instead
