Instead of QR menus, can't restaurants have landing pages after you connect to wifi that let you view the menu and order. For those that want a waiter you can put a big button on the top to request for physical service. For those know what they want, just select the dishes like you do on a food ordering app and the instructions are relayed to the kitchen.
This by no means solves the issues in the article, it might actually expound the privacy related issues and it deepens our reliance on mobile phones. But it does allow the best of both worlds; letting people choose the sort of service they get. The other choice is to have a physical tablet on each table for people to order from (although that sounds very gross).
