I’m against this.
I like options. I wish more resorts had pools with the same age restrictions.
Heck, Mahomes and that “Little Network Attached Storage the Tenth” have enough dough to buy their own Jamaican Chefs and keep them on call.
It is a big world, and one place with such a rule is not an issue. Now, how about one with no men under 35 and no women over 35? (Ducking object thrown by wife)
I find this funny, but I’m way way over 35. Fancy way of saying “we have the right to refuse service”, but this is age discrimination, only in reverse.
It’s safer, that’s for sure.
The same people that said social media platforms are private businesses and can ban anyone they want now take offense at a private business banning anyone they want.
Nice unwritten way to exclude young black gun wielding patrons with low impulse control, who just can’t help but shoot up the place when they feel dissed. Such a rule has the effect of keeping out some otherwise desirable patrons, but it’s one way of avoiding trouble makers.
I do believe that people should be able to socialize with those they prefer.
That said It was interesting to walk through a Florida country club 30 years ago with 2 of my adopted biracial black children on our way to a wedding.
In retrospect I guess I would not want to be anywhere I am not wanted.
I don't believe in discriminating on age issues because mostly its aimed only at children, our future....but people seem to be okay with keeping children out while letting the old farting grandmas and dribbling grandpas anywhere they want to go like on planes...
so the restaurant can do whatever they want but I would never give them my business...
A sexy atmosphere is not what I think of when contemplating fine dining.
B.I.N.G.O!

Grammar cringe.
Food and Wine needs a new editor.
I have to agree after having to withdraw from a cosmetology school. Many 20-somethings today need to experience some REAL world consequences that haven’t yet, having had everything handed to them on a platter while sitting in a public school. It almost put me into despair, but my dad harped a lot on “natural selection,” so they’ll weed THEMSELVES out. Maybe then we can get back to kids turning into an adult during their teens.

Jamaican and African dishes.
I’m hungry now.
It’s a private business. Up to them.
No one has a right to just be there.
Have you seen how snotty kids act in restaurants? Especially the ones with jerk parents?
Why?
You’re free to open your own restaurant.
