I would have just eaten it the way it was!
The manager ended up coming over to apologize and he comp'ed our appetizers.
So, no, I don't usually send it back but this time the waiter sent it back for me!

It does happen. The more chances you have to go to nice (dimly lit) restaurants -- you will get the "flashlight treatment" AND the good service from the front of the house that goes along with that.
