Unfinished concrete floors

When I am the Dutchess of Construction, retail spaces and restaurants will no longer be allowed to leave their nasty concrete floors unfinished. I suppose this look was chic in converted and developed warehouse spaces, but in small retail and commercial space this is an awful look. It's the lazy way out.
I ate lunch today at Betty's Burgers in Capitola, my first look at this new restaurant on 41st Ave. And while the food was terrific, I felt like I was eating in the garage due to the nasty unfinished concrete floor. At least give it a coat of stain or polish it. Oh and take the plastic off the seat fabric, but that's another day's rant.
