    I have the same issue.

    I do have a lot of perks on my restaurant (all except lower employee costs, tidy tippers, well funded foodies, surplus harvest, well managed and chefs hat), but when i tried to remove the "Faster eaters" perk with ui cheats, I still had the same effect of guests leaving right after they get seated. Not all leave, but some of them. I also noticed that when a guest leaves, there is already a new guest on the way to sit at the exact table, guided by my host. It nearly feels like the issue is coming from the host choosing tables that other guests are already sitting at, and that makes those original guests leave. Just a hypothesis from observing the dynamics at my restaurant. My restaurant also has a good amount of tables (11) and most of them have 2-3 seats, as the ones with more seats than 3 are never getting chosen by guest, so i reduced them to 3 per table (but have a few bigger ones in case i ever get a bigger family visiing).

    It also only started happening when i had more guests and my restaurant started having 3 stars. My price markup is only 125% and ingredient quality is standard, no advertising.

    I don't know if ui cheats is correctly removing the perk when i tried the removal of faster eaters to test out if that perk is causing it, but it appeared in the list as one that can be unlocked again after i removed it, so i assume the removal worked -> but no effect on the leaving guests, they are still leaving as much as before.
