Banquets require a signed contract and a 50% deposit. Your party must be cancelled at least a week prior to your event for a full refund. Special situations may require more cancellation time. See your contract for exact details.
Guest Counts And Guarantees
Menu selections are due one week prior to your event. Final counts are due three days prior to your event. This final count is a guarantee. You will be charged for the number of people in your final count, or the actual attendance, whichever is greater.

All prices are subject to change without notice. All sales are subject to 8.25% sales tax. All parties are subject to an 18% gratuity and a $50-$100 set up fee(buyouts are more). We accept MC, VISA, and AMEX. Sorry, no personal checks unless pre-approved by management.
Menus
Once you decide on a Menu Package, you can choose up to three entrees, a salad selection if more than one is offered in your package choice, and a dessert. You can then choose to have your guests pick their entree in advance and provide us with a count for each entree in advance, or we can serve your entrees family style to your group.
Wine
We encourage you to pre-select wine for your party to ensure that we have what you want in stock. (The Lunch and Dinner Packages are named after Grape Varietals because we are Wine Cellar Restaurant - wine is not included in your package price. It is a separate purchase.)

Our Executive Chef, Sandra Martinez, can work with you to design a custom menu if you desire something not on our list.
A chef charge will be added to all custom menus.
