Sometimes it's hard for me to tell whether a food venue should be classified as a restaurant or a fast food. From the description in the Wiki, the distinguishing features are: * payment right away * counter-only service (no waiters) * disposable plates and utensils * usually offers take-away * very fast (I guess this means in most cases you wait at the counter for your order to be fulfilled)
Having listed that, a few problematic cases from my experience in Poland: GreenWay, BioWay and the likes * vegetarian food * no waiters, you order at the counter, wait at your table and take your meal from the counter when it's ready * non-disposable utensils Various pizza venues, be it a part of bigger chain or one-off * offers pizza, maybe other Italian dishes, salad, fries, * no waiters, as above * telephone delivery * non-disposable utensils etc when you eat at the venue Basically similar to eg. Domino's. These usually get tagged as fast_food. Should they be? Sometimes food venues beg to be called a fast food (and someone tags them so) due to quality, but then again, they're not so fast - so maybe there should be amenity=shitty_food? :P Jokes aside, it's all subjective (hence, fails at verifiability).
