What happened last night at Sepia Bar?

Wow, that's bizarre. Sepia is usually such a chill spot. That's not the kind of thing I would expect there at all. If anything, when I've heard people with complaints about Sepia, it's that there's an "older crowd" there, which doesn't appeal to everyone.

awesome. drinking and fighting go together so well!

Second hand info here: two already-inebriated gentlemen (non-regulars) walked in, ordered expensive shots, then complained about the price and refused to pay, apparently using incredibly colorful and aggressive language in the process. They were asked to leave. They went outside, loudly, and waited. Bartender went out, got punched, and the regulars emptied out. Pushing and shoving ensued. The owner, Delissa, who had not been present at the bar until just then, arrived and began to intervene. One of the inebriated gentlemen that started the entire thing clocked her as well, whether intentionally or otherwise. Regulars got very, very angry. You can guess where that went.

Again, just what I heard. Was not personally a witness to the proceedings. I will say that I still consider Sepia a very chill, safe spot to relax. And that many of us regulars who've been going there since opening in 2004 may have an overdeveloped sense of loyalty to the place and are perhaps a tad overprotective of Delissa. Maybe.

I tend to agree with you.

Was the owner seriously injured? Sad.

Good for you guys for sticking up for her and the bar. I only get to Sepia every so often, but really enjoy it.

Not seriously. She had a sore jaw for a couple of days.

nothing compliments local biz like an olive garden near vandy

I like Sepia too, but they need a few more signs saying you can't run a tab.

Yes we do -- and there's one opening in 6 weeks in the Atlantic Terminal

I was thinking another Applebee's.

I don't think the people frequenting Atlantic Mall really fit with the demographic Cheesecake Factory targets. Maybe they should open a Red Lobster.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Hence my surpirse at the very idea of a Cheesecake Facory opening anywhere around here. As for Red Lobster, I'm all for it! That was actually part of the inital plans and designs for Atlantic Center, but at some point during initial construction, they dropped out.

Oh well, back to noteworthy Sepia happenings - my wife and I will likely stop in this evening. May not be noteworthy to most, but trust me, when you have two young kids, an hour or two away with your spouse on a random weeknight is pure gold.
