Oceaniare is overpriced and mediocre food now. We used to go there every year for years on Valentine's day and the menu was good. Then every year, prices went up and it got to the point the selection wasn't as good. We just stopped going.
Call a restaurant, ask for the manager.
Sir/Maam, I am attending the NRA annual meetings this weekend. I was wondering if you have been approached by Moms Demand action, about posting one of their NO ENTRY with FIREARMS signs. Do you plan on posting them?
Yes: Thank you, Sir/Maam, I will tell my friends you are not good to spend our money and tip generously.
No: Thank you, I will tell my friends you are good to spend our money and tip generously.

Ok, now for Yard House....
Yard House is a Darden restaurant. Darden's policy is to follow state/local laws. I called them to confirm this again.
After that, I called the Indy Yard House, spoke with the manager.
She told me that "for the weekend it was permitted because the city lifted the ordnance to allow carry in the downtown area.". I asked her what ordnance. She said there is a city ordnance that made carry in the downtown area illegal and that it was lifted for the weekend because of the convention.
I asked her if they had a no firearms sign, she said it has been taken down for the weekend only. After the convention was over then it was going back up. I asked her about this ordnance, she said she saw it on the news, and that she was told by corporate that it was ok to take it down just for the weekend.
I call complete
To me it sounds like they've realized they are making a mistake and are going to lose a ton of money and this is their way of trying to limit that. Either way, she said the sign will go back up once the weekend is over. That makes them a permanent no go for me.
I really wanted to record these calls. My new phone doesn't have that capability though. I didn't have time to try and find a good app either.
Probably not going to write a FB review for this one.
Thank you for tolerating that level of ignorance .Ok, now for Yard House....

That one sounds like its time for a follow-up in writing to management because they are painfully ignorant of the law.
They probably confused the lifting of the carry prohibition in the convention center. Depending on who is renting it, it leans toward a GFZ as I recall. (e.g. if the city is having an event, policy is no guns, but if NRA (or any other gun friendly org) rents it they are allowed to override it)
Thank you for tolerating that level of ignorance .
This saved my ass throughout my divorce and beyond...
Put between your ear and ANY phone. Plugs into most voice recorders. There are a few types out there.

If Yard House wants to be a GFZ then that's fine, do it, but at the same time own it.
So basically the manager and her restaurant are money grubbing whores. So listing it as a No Go out of principal is appropriate for gun owners. I wonder if the mommies and the antis would list the restaurant as a No Go for them too out of principal. After all, you either believe in the Constitutional right to carry or you don't. Love to see this restaurant put in a world of hurt from both sides and suffer because of it.
I am generally okay with the restaurants that ask for no open carry in an effort to keep everyone happy. Basically they want to run a business and are happy with anyone's money and don't wish to get caught in the middle. Just so long as they are polite, professional and consistent.
