I just did a little bit of research on the matter. On top of what red sox is saying (which I totally agree with, dine and dashing seems like a really "dumb" crime to commit) another deterrent that you might want to hear is that when you do this at a restaurant, your server generally is forced to pay the bill for it. Even in places where it's illegal for the owners to make the employees do that, they basically get forced into a position where they have to pay the bill anyway or risk getting in trouble and losing their jobs (or some weird technicality that I don't really understand since I've never owned or worked at a restaurant).
