I can appreciate the fact that most businesses don't want to risk losing customers and I suspect that is why you don't see any (many) challenges.
The only service dogs IMO allowed any eating establishment are service dogs for the blind. Dogs in the square (area where the dance and stage are) should be no dogs allowed. Dogs have sensitive hearing IMO you're damaging your dog ears being that close to the band therefore again IMO should be animal abuse
