I just read a very interesting article on restaurant lighting: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2012/08/31/softer-restaurant-music-lighting-can-help-cut-calories/ In there it says: "[...]toning down the tunes and dimming the lights in a fast food restaurant can help diners enjoy their meal more and eat less[...]" furthermore: "In the study published in the journal Psychological Reports, Wansink and his co-author Koert Van Ittersum, of the Georgia Institute of Technology, said the bright lights, stimulating colors, sound-reflecting surfaces and loud music in fast food restaurants are not designed to be relaxing." (Source: http://www.interior-deluxe.com) I wonder if many restaurant owners are even considering these issues?
