A $5 minimum does not sound unreasonable to me given the entertainment they have there every night as welll as the crowds waiting to get a seat/table. Im surprised its not more especially "in season" or when the better bands play.
As far as table hopping, again if you liked the venue that much to switch tables to stay longer after you had already been served....its a new seat, a new waiter, and people are waiting in line etc and an additional $5 minimum is "very" reasonable.
Sounds like the lesson learned here is dont take the first seat if you are not pleased with it...otherwise you can always go to the square!
