1) He ordered anything on the menu when he went to that restaurant.
2) What the waiter said was not really clear. It could mean John ordered anything on the menu when he went to that restaurant.
Do these sentences make sense?
Do they mean he ordered everything on the menu or something on the menu?
I can understand
3) He could order anything on the menu.
but '1' and '2' sound incorrect to me, unless he really ordered everything on the menu (even then, they would sound a bit strange).
