I often ask the waitperson if there are things the cook on duty does
especially well.  Sometimes I get offered off-menu items.  

I do put in special requests from time to time, but seldom send them back if
they aren't right.  I've been in too many kitchens where exceptions are just
too easy to forget.  

I do try to be clear about dressing an item or my plate.  No mayonnaise is
usually the waitperson, not the cook's problem.  

The other thing I do before I complain is ask the person I'm dining with if
I was clear.  Sometimes I'm the only one who understood what I was getting
at. *grin*
