Fuck you, douchebags!
The uppity asshat-ness of the doormen and pretty much everyone in here was at defcon 1. I was really surprised that it was that bad. The other place - Stingray Sushi - is awesome. I expected Stingray style service and manners, but was really dissapointed.
The biggest problem was that the "doormen" were rude to a bunch of guys I was with. They said they couldn't come in because of "dress code." They said "no flip flops." This was ridiculous because:
A: They let me in. I was wearing flip flops.
B. They have a wide open window that showed at least a dozen other guys inside wearing flip flops too. No dress code for the dudes inside, but there is a dress code for the guys I was with?
C. A bunch of guys and girls came in wearing flip flops after us
The guys I was with are all well dressed guys who were dressed down after a spring training game. After a little hassle over the flip flops they let us in. We asked the bartender about the dress code and she replied "what dress code." So I asked a manager about the dress code and he didn't seem to know what I was talking about.
It seems like the bounchers decided just because my friends prefer to wear Lacoste, Puma and Hugo Boss over wearing ED Hardy and those stupid-ass AFFLICATION t-shirt s.
I guess we are not cool enough for this bar. Which is fine with me.
Cool concept. Too much dickwadness in the way of having a good time. I will give it another try on another night and see if it was a fluke. Stay tuned...
Boo!
