The property owner controlled the liquor license, and put into place draconian restrictions about what the bars could and couldn’t do (especially about using the patio) that it was impossible for anyone to be successful there. And my understanding was he didn’t “lose” the license, he just didn’t want to go through the process of renewing it for them.

So you are saying they didn't force Far West out (because they moved to New Orleans, not got kicked out) and you infact don't know what you are talking about?

Theres enough issues at room & works you don't have to make things up lol.

The patio? You mean the entire indoor space that they were free to use (and did use)? Or the little outdoor space that they were also allowed to use?
