There are exactly 2 restaurants I recommend to people, and invite family/friends to when they’re visiting.

Absolutely none of these restaurants know who I am, do anything special for me, or even know my favorite dishes.

The only thing they have in common is they consistently make delicious tasting food. And they probably focus a lot on doing that. Its that simple.

Would you also recommend these 2 restaurants if they ignored you for 30 minutes before taking your order, then brought your drinks late after you've already finished your meal? There's a lot more to a good restaurant experience than consistently making delicious tasting food. It's definitely not that simple.

I would not but those are table stakes for any restaurant, that 99% of all places I go already do.

I assume you're referring to Jacques Imo's in New Orleans, then :)
