"get me a dinner reservation next sunday with patio seating for 5 in the east village at an upscale tapas place"

Nope. I don't think anyone would ever leave it up to M (or whatever) to select the restaurant.

Agreed. But you could get 4 options to choose from.

I would; though for me going out to eat with friends is more about the "going out with friends" - where we end up is a fairly minor detail

For me, it's entirely "going out with friends". But that doesn't mean I'm going to leave restaurant selection to a bot. For many, people, selecting a restaurant is fun. And I bet you and your friends don't just go to some random place.
