Was in with wife and another couple from out of town. Flashes was recommended to us for a casual drink. Went on Friday night to a nearly empty bar and experienced absolutley horrible service. Only was aknowledged by the server each time my friend got up to approach the bar on his own. Needless to say the server rec'd a light tip. Despite this experience we went back again on Sat night only becasue close proximity to our hotel. I cringed when I saw we had the same server again. This time we sat in a sofa area at the front of the bar. We were again ignored. We finally got service and after a couple drinks the waiter abruptly showed up with 4 glasses of water and told us we were cut off for being too intoxicated. This is after 2 cocktails. The manager said he did not need to give us an explanation and he could decide who he would/would not serve. We were not obnoxious or exhibiting inappropriate behavior for a bar. We were happy to be out and singing along with the music and talking no louder than anyone would in a bar. We were dressed reasonably fashionable (better than most there) and are attractive couples in our 30's. Not sure if the treatment was because we didn't fit a desired profile. We spent $80 on the first 2 rounds and were ready to spend away so it doesn't seem to be a smart business decision. Horrible experience!!
