Dear Manager and Dear Webmaster,

I feel a need to tell you that the song that auto-plays on your website is hands-down the worst song I've ever heard in any musical genre in my entire life. I'm glad it's possible to mute it while trying to read your website, but I hesitate at the idea of actually going to your restaurant for fear that "music" similar to this is what plays in your dining room. Your website would be much more usable and inviting without this noise that sounds like a cat in grand mal seizure accompanied by a 2-year-old on guitar.

I hope this song isn't representative of your dining room's ambient music, as I'm sure I would otherwise like to try dining in your establishment. I just don't want to have to bring earplugs.

Thanks,
-Mare

although I will note that the 'can't adjust the font sizes' is not entirely true - you can right-click on a pc, squiggle-click on a mac, to get 'zoom in' on flash sites, which does indeed allow you to make the fonts and everything larger.

On my mac, using Safari, command-+ (actually, command-=) will embiggen the fonts.

Somebody who isn't web savvy, who just wants to get something to eat, might not know that, though.
