Private Events & Dining FAQs

A food & beverage minimum is defined as the total food & beverage sales, prior to gratuity, service fee & tax. The minimums are based on date, time frame and the room size, not by the number of guests that are attending your event. If your total bill falls short of reaching the food & beverage minimum, the difference will be billed as a Room Rental fee.

In order to secure your event, a deposit is due upon signing your contract. Your first deposit is 50% of your food and beverage minimum.

All food and beverage prices are subject to a service charge of 20% (6% Banquet Service Charge and 14% Staff Gratuity). A 7% sales tax is applied on all food, beverage and the banquet service charge. All additional charges incurred during the event will be charged to the credit card on file unless otherwise specified. If your group is tax exempt you need to provide us your DR-14 form when sending in the contract.

Menus must be selected ten business days prior to your event. If menu selections are not received by this deadline, chef’s choice will apply. Guest counts dropping below 15 guests at least five days prior may be subject to chef’s choice of menu.

Decorators must follow the decoration policies, Absolutely no tape on wall papered walls, no staples or nails on any interior materials. NO Glitter, Confetti or Wax Candles are allowed to be used.

We are not responsible for any items left after an event and do not guarantee the security of those items.

Valet services are available, either hosted by your group, or paid by any individuals who use the service. Self valet is $7 for 2 hours, and $3 for each additional hour.

A guaranteed guest count is required no later than 3 business days prior to the date of the event. This number will be considered the guarantee not subject to change.
