The Lobby bar is EXPENSIVE, I've been there a few times for work. Entrees are $30-$40, drinks are $10-$30 each, appetizers are $20 per person.
$7,000 is around $150 per person, and they had dinner and appetizers on top of drinks. With 50 people they'd be renting the place out which I just made a phone call to ask about because I was curious. The dude who answered told me he was the manager and said it's a $6500 minimum to rent the place out for a happy hour, add extra drinks not on the menu during an open bar, and easy peasy to hit $7k.
Hell, I rented out a cheaper place nearby that had craft beers and appetizers only, just crappy stuff like pizza bites and mini burgers and stuff and for 35 people it cost me $5500 and that was six months after what's his name booked that place, so not surprising.
People hear $7k for a bar tab! But hell, be realistic, that was a bullshit response to a kind of valid question. Kash has been handing out hundreds of bottles of $250 whiskey as his calling card and chugging beers on live TV. We've run dems through the ringer for half that shit.
