While I'd prefer my flatware stand out, it would be okay if it just disappeared all together - meaning good enough to make sense but not remarkable on a positive or negative side. LOOK HERE
Not only do these pieces look impractical, they don't exactly scream "Ozarks" at me. Isn't there some traditional regional pattern that you could emulate?
My own stainless is Oneida but I no longer remember the name of the pattern. The design is colonial but simple, and I would not trade it for the finest silver. (I used to have the finest silver from when I was married and I gave it all away.)
My main concern about flatware in a restaurant is "Is it clean?"
Edit: my Oneida pattern seems no longer available. (Not to worry, I have lots.) The closest current pattern I could find was Paul Revere:

Very similar. I think I should be most happy with Paul Revere if I found it in a restaurant. Even if that patriot and rum bibber never made it to the Ozarks.
