How pricing works

No surprises: the estimate is the bill

Every dish on the event menu is priced per guest at 10% below the dine-in price. Add drinks, bar service, extras and entertainment; service charge and sales tax are shown as their own lines.

The formula

  1. 1. Menu per guest × number of guests
  2. 2. On Friday and Saturday: topped up to $35 per guest if lower
  3. 3. Drinks, bar service and add-ons (per event or per guest)
  4. 4. 20% service charge on food, bar and add-ons
  5. 5. Entertainment at the act's flat price (no service charge)
  6. 6. 8.25% Dallas sales tax on the total
  7. 7. 25% deposit confirms the date; balance on the day

Questions

Good to know

Can we bring our own alcohol?
We are a BYOB venue. Bring your own wine or spirits; a corkage fee per bottle applies and is settled on the night. For events, the BYOB mixer and bottle-service package covers ice, mixers, glassware and a server for your bottles; choose "open bar" and a bartender is added automatically.
How do we confirm a date?
A 25% deposit confirms your date. We will text you Zelle details, or you can pay by card at the restaurant. The balance is due on the day of the event.
How much notice do you need?
Online requests need at least 3 days' notice and can be made up to 365 days ahead. For something sooner, call us — if the kitchen can do it, we will.
What if we need to cancel or change the guest count?
You can change your menu, add-ons and guest count from your estimate link until we confirm. After confirmation, tell us the final count 72 hours before the event; deposits are refundable up to 14 days before the date.
Can we bring a cake?
Yes. Outside cakes are welcome with no cutting fee, or add our honey or Napoleon celebration cake as an add-on.
Are kids welcome?
Family celebrations are a big part of what we do. Kids under 12 count as half a guest on the food price — tell us how many in the notes and we adjust the estimate.
Is there parking?
Free parking in front of the restaurant on Preston Road, with space for a shuttle or limo drop-off.
Do you have AV for speeches and slideshows?
A projector, screen and wireless microphone are available as an add-on; our DJ package includes the sound system.
Is the weekend minimum applied to events?
Yes: on Friday and Saturday the food part of your estimate is topped up to $35 per guest if your menu comes in lower.
