A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Let’s make
a plan.

How many people can we host?

Space depends on the restaurant, room, season and seated or standing arrangement. Tell us your expected guest count and we’ll recommend a suitable setting with a confirmed capacity.

Can we customize the menu?

Yes. Our team will discuss your occasion, preferences and dietary needs, then propose a menu and service format. All menus depend on seasonality and availability.

Can you cater at our location?

Tell us where you’re gathering and what service you need. We’ll discuss delivery, setup and staffed catering options in your proposal.
