text: To Sarah l. -\n\nBuy a box of wine and stay at home? Funny, you sound like you're probably an employee or something...\n\nThe point is that those of us who live downtown and do events to help PROMOTE local businesses are typically treated much more professionally - like had the manager gotten back to me when they said they would, I would have probably held the event somewhere else.  Groups of 40+ people boost sales - that's a typical no brainer.  If this restaurant can sustain itself on only having a decent happy hour crowd, but not listening to the people who live in the neighborhood, I'll be surprised if they last a year.\n\nThe good thing is that there are many great restaurants downtown who DO appreciate patronage and what the customers think - and apparently I'm not the only one who thinks the music is ungodly loud and their speakers suck.
