Frequently Asked Questions…
Where are the dinners held? Dinners are held at unique locations in and around South Florida. Directions to each event are posted on the website along with the event description. For hard to find venues, we will email specific driving directions to registered guests.
What happens if it rains? We will provide tents or an indoor area when possible. If not, the dinner will be canceled (with as much notice as possible) and fully refunded.
What is the dress code? Casual.
What is the price per person for a dinner and what does that include? The dinners can range in price from $35 – $100 per person depending on the theme and venue. We offer a complimentary cocktail upon arrival along with a multi-course feast at a communal table. We will announce events that are BYOB.
Can you accommodate vegetarians/vegans/allergies? Each dinner is based on a theme and the menu is fixed. Many of the menus involve meats, dairy and seafood – or a combination – and may not be a good value for vegetarians or vegans. If you have any food allergies, please let us know in advance, so we can steer you away from certain items at a dinner or suggest another event that may be better suited for you.
How long do the dinners last? We encourage leisurely dining and enjoying the space we’re in and dinners generally lasts about 2 to 3 hours, or longer, as guests often don’t want the night to end!
Is the menu available in advance? Our menu is usually being completed up to the day of the dinner. If you would like a rough copy of the menu – keeping in mind that it will likely change somewhat – we are happy to email a copy to you.
Are tickets refundable? No, but they are transferable to another guest. If you cannot attend the dinner, please contact us with the names of the new guests.
How many people attend a dinner? Between 25 and 50.
Can we make a reservation for a larger party? Yes. We encourage larger parties to reserve quickly, while there is still space at the table. Keep in mind that reservations are taken on a first come, first serve basis.
Is there a waiting list for sold out dinners? No. Tickets are non-refundable, so once we are sold out, we cannot offer any additional seats.
