Answer:

The sample is Biased

Explanation:

When a survey is being taken, bias is when results are manipulated to intentionally or unintentionally get certain results. This survey is biased because the restaurant is only surveying loyal customers, who all most likely like the restaurant

A way to make the survey random would be by asking multiple different customers that aren't loyal or regular.
