My experience is with the Erwin's Rooftop Restaurant and Bar.

My Auntie has lived in this area for over 35 years. She frequents the coffee shop and we went to the rooftop bar once and had a wonderful time. Today we had family in from Washington, DC and took them to this place for after-brunch drinks. We were told the wait was an hour. We had no problem, ordered great margaritas and enjoyed the view.

After a while we watched people walk in and just sit down. We were told they had reservations. One group was asked to move and they refused, but was still served. After about an hour and 15 minutes, we was told it was okay to sit in one area, and then asked to get up. Once again we were seated in another area, but yet another employee said we could not sit there. I asked if there was an issue with our skin, as we were the one people of color there. An 1/2 hour after our initial 1 hour wait, we left.

The 2 stars are only for the margaritas. If you are black, step back, you will not be served here
