Interesting....

The best analogy is the mall analogy. A lot of these malls closed down because a bunch of kids with no or little money would come in and do laps around the mall terrorizing other guests, loitering, fighting, etc, and they weren't buying shit! What happened?!! They drove away paying customers and the malls started shutting down.

It is what it is.

Niggas know how to ruin any fine dining experience. I don't blame them for instituting the policy.
I see the same shit at Pappadeaux down here in Houston.
Niggas just acting out for social media and going there to be seen.
The last two statements are very true

Pretty sure that’s not what caused a lot of malls to shut down....though it may have been a small contributor

I gotta ask, da fuq is a "fine dining experience"??? I eat to get full not so I can write about it or reminisce about how the food looked on the plate or how the waiter kissed my ass. Seems to me that the fine dining experience is just another empty hustle to make people feel exclusive and justify ridiculous phrases like "if you gotta ask, then you can't afford it". I can have my girl serve my favorite foods butt nekkit in the privacy of my own home with my favorite music and candlelight. I don't think Steak 48 could even come close. Now that's a "fine dining experience".

Right... It was a factor though.

I get Amazon was the main reason.

Point stands that kids not spending money and causing trouble drives away paying customers. You can't get cooked steak on Amazon....yet (lol)

Until then, the businesses where people like to come and floss and buy a soda have to do what they can to survive and profit.

Fine dining experience = white upscale restaurant

Incorrect. The same way neighborhoods fine you for not keeping your house up, restaurants don’t want just anybody with money coming there. HOA’s exist for basically the same reason as dress codes. I have no issue with owning a place and not wanting a certain element there. Black folk kill me being upset about some shit when you don’t HAVE to enrich these Cacs. If you can’t wear a sport coat you don’t deserve to eat there. Simple.
