If you’re on their WiFi, then they’re just getting the restaurant’s IP. If you’re on mobile data, then they’re getting your carrier IP, which is often inside layers of carrier-grade NAT. Either way, they don’t get much besides knowing you’re attached to a specific carrier.
Even then it usually goes through the device’s browser and fingerprints as hard as some JavaScript virtually can, but I figured that was a bit long for the original post
(I mean shit your device probably tells google itself where its going, much less the connections on the other end)
edit: and of course this isn’t just the restaurant collecting it cause why would they care, usually its a shady 3rd party that already has a massive profile on you they can cross-reference
