Children welcome until 6:30 PM
Outside smoking in designated area only.

I don't like it when people smoke outside any establishment. Usually they smoke right outside the maIn door. I then have to walk through it and smell it when entering or exiting.

Appropriate attire requested - One thing I've always loved about this state is I can enjoy fine dining without dressing to the nines. Dress code = I won't be there.

Children welcome until 6:30 PM - once again, I won't be there.

Outside smoking in designated area only - doesn't bother me at all, but people are going to gravitate to right outside the door no matter what your 'rules' are, especially in lousy weather.

People that have to go home and change will not likely be back. That being said, its hard to know what you mean, are shorts ok? (certainly not on me, but that's beside the point), how about jeans? Short sleeved shirts, long?

What delimits the age of a child, to me its under 40, but where do you draw the line?

I think its much simpler to say no smoking.

In general, I think pulling someone out of the line on a fuzzy judgment would cause more collateral damage than setting standards would help.

But what do I know, I just enjoy good food.
