While I did have a blast, you're writer Elaine from four months back stands CORRECT. The staff at PDR had open seating roped off. Just last month. I noticed you replied to her saying seating was no issue. Perhaps you should slide in unannounced one weekend evening . Trust but fact check... They don't want to clean the areas so they rope them off and do not allow seating. That is a FACT , noted at both of my visits over the past month. I may try them one more time because the staff was nice, atmosphere was great and my friends live it.. when they're allowed to be seated.
No biggie if we don't get to sit down. Whiskey Row is awesome too and may be better suited to a certain class of individuals that both enjoy and are willing to pay for a seated experience, even if VIP.
Staff at PBR were professional and nice. Not enough to support your prices, nor the culture of the area PBR is located in. I think what I'm trying to relate to you is they didn't really seem to embrace the idea or goal of getting returning customers by providing a wonderful SEATED experience. There's nothing more frustrating than going into a restaurant bar or grill seeing many open tables. Much less seeing ropes in front of them. Forcing us to stand up and have our drinks. I am in my 40s, it's not like I have to sit down. I have a little bit of class and like to sit down to enjoy some of my $15 cocktails that I purchase at your establishment. No they do not let you sit at those tables consistently. As a matter of fact we were asked to get up from a table at 12:30 at night and was told that that section was closed it was not roped up. Several people had just exited the booth.
Whiskey Row is pretty great, I would bear that in mind
