If its purpose is to look good and invite you in, then by all means it is there.
Though the reasonability of the place is gone. They allow you only to sit at certain tables. We sat on the staircase terrace outside, were told to move because our party size took up too much room. Insofar as that, it's fine--safety.
So we moved to the inside, less beautiful, less breezy, but just as inviting. We took seat at a completely empty table alongside three other empty tables, with other people eating in the same room. After we got comfortable, they wanted us to move again.
Excuse me? I'm sorry, but this is a completely usable table, with other people sitting at a table just like it. We are dressed nice, admire your place, and are just looking to have uninterrupted conversation alongside some drinks. We are not affecting anyone else. Because of your arbitrary rules, it was no wonder why your restaurant held all those empty tables. Even after one of us spoke to your manager, there was apparently no time to explain why--you just wanted us to move.
It could have been a nice experience. But the irrationality destroyed that. Do not come here if you want a place with an open mind.
