Honestly if you're going out to eat with someone the phones should stay in pockets or bags
If you're making the effort to go out you should be there not on your phones
I have autism and probably ADHD, eating without something else to stimulate me is absolute misery and if you tell me to put away my phone i'm going to start avoiding eating with you.
The something else is... The person you're eating with?
Not in my experience, my boomer dad doesn't exactly have much in commin with me, he wants to talk about sports and i want to talk about technology.
We just both pull out our phones and appreciate the presence of the other, you don't have to talk to people to be social.
I mean as long as it's cool with the other person I guess it doesn't hurt
