Answer 3

Yes of course. You are paying for a service they are not providing. But no need to be ugly about it - the more gracious you are when you ask them to replace them, the more it will show them up.

Answer 4

I would not make a fuss, but I'd politely ask for new ones if I was worried they were dirty.

Answer 5

Spots - No. Use your napkin and clean it.

If food was stuck on it, than Yes.

Answer 6

If it was dirty looking I would ask for new silverware, but not be ugly about it.

Answer 7

Water spots - no

Food spots - yes!

i also don't eat at 5-star restaurants or anything, though. if i was paying a buttload of money for my meal, i think i would complain even about water spots.

Answer 8

I would bring it up... not really demanding new ones, but just pointing it out, really.
