We lost a great pizza place down here in Gilroy for the same predatory-ADA reason. The owners were/are great folks, and deserved better. I've known many small businesses that have had this kind of issue, too, and almost without exception the suit had no moral merit. It's infuriating, and I say this as someone who is very much in favor of ADA-style accommodations in general. But they way things currently work as written is fundamentally broken.
