Question

You are the owner of a new Italian restaurant in town. One day Betty and Steve enter your restaurant, take a seat at one of your booths, and order two pasta dinners from the waiter. Betty and Steve enjoy the meal, compliment you on your culinary skill, and refuse to pay for their meals. Betty and Steve reason that because they never entered into a written contract with you to provide food for money, that they should not have to pay for it. Naturally you disagree and are thinking about suing them for the cost of the expensive meals. Discuss whether Betty and Steve are responsible for paying for their dinners and the reasons why.

Answer 1

Betty and Steve had to pay for the food they had eaten previously from My Restaurant.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is that it has become a general provision if someone orders food in a restaurant, then eats it, then he has to pay for the food. Except for people who work to assess food, for example from the health department, maybe they can get food for free with the reason to judge whether the food in the restaurant is suitable for consumption or not. And even then with the approval of the restaurant owner or manager.

Answer 2

Betty and Steve should pay for the meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Betty and Steve have entered into an implied contract with the restaurant.

An implied contract is legally binding. The circumstances, actions, or conduct of one or more participants in the deal sanctions the contact. In this situation, Betty and steve initiated the implied contract when they ordered and consumed the plates of pasta. In that circumstance, no written agreement is required. The act of consuming made the contract enforceable.
