Is it okay to make out at a restaurant? Discuss.

We've all seen it before. The couples who can't stop kissing or cuddling each other while you're trying to eat peacefully or patiently waiting for your table. The ones who are so in love and/or inebriated that they lose sense of their surroundings and behave as though they think they're alone.

About two weeks ago I was waiting for a table at a restaurant bar and sitting next to me was a man and a woman who seemed to be on a date. He apparently said something very funny, his date laughed so hard that she literally snorted and moments later they started passionately kissing for about a half an hour. What do you think of restaurant display of affection? Should we be able to enjoy a little restaurant smooch now and then or is it disrespectful and/or gross?
