completar


Explanation:
Solo una opinión: quizá se refiera al hecho de que si el encuestado elige esta opción, es necesario asegurarse de completar cuáles son los demás restaurantes o centros gastronómicos a los que fue durante el último mes. En tal caso, para [Anchor & Validate] iría algo así como "Completar y confirmar".

De todos modos, como bien apunta Rosa, lo más seguro debido a la falta de contexto sigue siendo "Anclar" y "Anclar y validar".
