My wife and I visited on 12/16 for some good wine and shared plates as we have frequented Lemon Grass a number of times. We decided to eat at the bar at Bistro Elephant. Since my wife drinks white wine and I prefer red we decided to order by the glass. I ordered a glass of cabernet which was served in a somewhat smaller glass usually used for white. I asked the bartender for a larger stemmed glass and was told the following "It's an unwritten rule here that you have to buy a $100 bottle of wine in order to get one of those glasses." I asked him to repeat what he had said again just to be sure I heard him correctly. He reassured me that I wasn't allowed to drink from the stemmed glass but he would be happy to get me one of the stemless glasses that they also have. I asked if he was worried if I was going to either steal or break the stemmed glass and that's why I couldn't use it. There were 9 of them on the back bar. He again repeated that I just wasn't spending enough $ to get the nice glass. In order to not embarrass my wife, I let it go. We ended up spending $156 on some apps and a few glasses of wine. Everything was very good. Prior to this visit I we had come after an SU game and I asked for a larger wine glass than what was served. I was told then that they were for a private party. Max, you may need to revisit your policy or purchase some inexpensive stemmed glasses. I spent many years in the restaurant business and many dollars at restaurants since. It's one of my greatest pleasures. I have told everyone I know that enjoys nice restaurants this story and they were amazed. I also have asked them to tell their friends. All of them. And for them to tell their friends. I loved the food and especially the Lost Slipper dessert. Never again, unless I'm out with my drunk friends and your restaurant is full.
