I find for the plaintiff in the amount of the $6 cover charge. I find for the defendant in the amount of attorney fees, not to exceed Texas minimum wage for hours spent, not to exceed 40 hours.
Sounds like the perfect facts for application of the Open & Obvious Doctrine: See, Rebecca Johnson, v. Lone Star Steakhouse & Saloon of Kentucky, Inc., No. 1998–CA–000831–MR, 997 S.W.2d 490 (Ky. Ct. App. 1999)
