Capacity & layout
SEATED DINING
Cozy, group-friendly seating
We’ll recommend the best table plan based on your group size and timing — long tables, smaller groupings, or a mix for easy conversation.
RECEPTION-STYLE
Great for mingling
For larger parties, a standing or mixed setup can be a fun option — perfect for toasts, networking, and a lively flow.

We host group dining for 11+ guests. Typical seated events are around 11–50 guests in our upstairs dining room. Setups are customized based on party size, day/time, and the atmosphere you want — a reserved section for your group, a smooth flow for mingling, or (on select dates) a full-floor buyout with a minimum spend. Planning a larger reception or buyout? Additional options may be available through an upstairs lounge venue operated separately. Share your estimated guest count and ideal vibe, and we’ll suggest the best option.
