'We won't serve you until you pay the bill': Dine and dash family returns to restaurant in attempt to do it again, manager makes sure they pay what they owe

Every restaurant or store has to deal with people attempting to leave without paying. In stores, it is easier to prevent people from doing it, because they have to leave the premises with a physical item at hand, and it is pretty simple to track the items and make sure they are not stolen. In restaurants, is it a bit more complicated, since a customer consumes the food before they actually pay for it, so they can just up and leave when no one is looking, and never pay a dime.

Surely every restaurant has dealt with a few 'dine and dashers' in their history, and sometimes they have to accept it as it is. But if a customer dares to go back to a restaurant that they once left without paying, they are risking getting recognized and having to face their actions.
