Been in there to grab take-out before and seen probably the same group. The people I witnessed all had shirts/sweatshirts from a local tree company. I'm guessing (don't know) it's probably the same group. These people also were quite loud and acting pretty ignorant for their age. 100 percent blame the owners for allowing that to happen.

When I used to watch the tv show Bar Rescue a common problem would be the owner catering to a few regulars who did not spend very much but treated the place like a club house and scared away new customers.

If it has been brought to their attention and the comment that was made in return, they deserve to close and I don't feel bad for them.

Chinese restaurants rely heavily on income from their bar, so I cannot blame the owner for not muzzling the boisterous regulars.

Of course this may discourage diners from eating in but hey, there's always take out.

Seriously?

Perhaps if you are "bar hopping" in the 90's...

Huh?? 100 percent the owners fault and should be addressed. A dozen or so "regulars" won't keep a place like that open forever. They do reasonable takeout service it's almost all they do. Their seating as stated isn't very appealing.

I guess then that their "business model," such as it is, seems to be working for them: cater to the bar crowd and the take out customers and discourage sit down dining.
