I disagree with this one. I’ve worked in restaurants for years… the soda dispensed from fountain machines are designed to be slightly diluted with ice and taste much better that way.
Also, unless you’re getting your food to-go, any sit-down restaurant has unlimited free refills for the duration of your stay. So unless you’ve got a bad server who isn’t on top of refills, I don’t much see the point in this.

This is another misconception that people have… in a drink filled to the top with ice, the ice actually melts slower and waters the drink down less than than one filled with mostly beverage and like .5 or .25 ice.
