A great restaurant server brings a customer what they want, even if they secretly know that what the customer wants is kind of gross. A recent Reddit thread put the spotlight on orders that some servers might call questionable. Next time a server winces when you order the soup, maybe take that as a sign you should ask what they'd have.

Anything that isn't what the restaurant specializes in

Forever-warm soup

Calamari

Ranch dressing

General Tso's chicken

Any drink with fruit in it

Blue steak

Adding good booze to soda

Ice, ice (baby)

Extra mayo

Sriracha

Spicy yellowtail

Sour cream
