My First Time Visiting after the Reopen and Spent a Bit Too Much

I guess this will be Part 1 of my review of the newly renovated and under new management The Raven. Part 2 will feature what happened at my second visit. I've been to the old "Red Raven" a few times to see some familiar favorites and I mostly left satisfied. However, the new Raven is totally different.

I like that the place is newly renovated with a much cleaner restroom for men. The bar seats are new, and custom made with military/sports insignia which I thought was cool. There are two stages with two poles and a swing. The place is dark with televisions about. It is well-ventilated with strong air conditioning. I don't mind the cold drafts.

I don't drink, so I usually just order a water which is $4. I didn't order food, but I saw other patrons order food and the food looked well-presented and appetizing. This was my first time back in a while since they rebranded the club and I've been planning on visiting so I decided to go on a Saturday night.
