We had some friends who were recently discriminated against because they are gay. Considering that this is the Knox Henderson area which has always been extremely gay friendly, I find this sort of behavior by management deplorable. A packed bar and our friends spent a total of $400 on a couple rounds of drinks for themselves and 14 friends while waiting to be seated. They were asked to leave when one person sat on the his partners leg while he was sitting down because there was no room to sit. Keep in mind that they were sitting by the restrooms and almost completely out of the view of the rest of the restaurant. There was no inappropriate behavior. They were told that their behavior would not be tolerated and they were asked to leave. When they tried to pass out the valet tickets to their guest and tell them that they were being forced to leave, this was looked upon as being aggressive so an off duty police officer was called to escort them out. \r

I can't believe that this sort of behavior from restaurant management is still tolerated in this day and age. I will never step food in this restaurant until our friends receive a formal apology and the manager is reprimanded. We'll do everything in our power to make sure that more and more people know about the discrimination practices of this establishment. \r

Trust me. If it were a women leaning on the leg of another man, this would never have happened.
Cons: Discrimination
