There is an excellent restaurant in Banff called "The Grizzly House" where they serve meat on these hot hot hot rocks and you grill them at your plate and them dip them in fondue. They do not allow children, period, because the waiters don't need to be dodging children, while they are carrying 800F rocks to your table.
I don't think that if you have kids, that you need to be "relegated to crappy chain restaurants" either, but having a noisy DVD player would be disruptive to the other diners. If you have kids, go EARLY in the night, so that others who bothered to get a babysitter can have a little romance over the candlelight.
