Your restaurant would be shut down immediately for safety violations, the only way to ensure you get all those 350 customers? By either expanding your current building, or by renting out or buying a new location. Not by kicking people out mid meal and say try to get back into the building in 10 minutes.

Our current situation is more like....

The building has a max capacity of 50, but 25 of them refuse to leave, even when you tell them to.

So in effect, the building now has a max capacity of 25, halfing the speed at which you can serve the remaining 300 people.



The measure they've put into effect is like calling the police to clear out the entire building to get those 25 people out of your building so you can now serve 50 at a time instead of 25.
