IMPORTANT EVENT INFO:
• We will meet inside of the restaurant shortly before 5:30 pm. Please don't be late, as they may require the entire party to be present before seating us.
• The meal here is expected to be around $50.00 or more, depending on how much food we order, any drinks you may order, $1 MeetUp Fee (waived to those who paid their membership renewal fee since July 2024), tax, and at least 20% gratuity. Please bring at least $80 in cash (small denominations preferred) to pay for your share of the meal. However, if necessary, I can accept payments via Zelle (which, unlike PayPal or Venmo, does not charge a service fee).
• Family-Style Dining: Dining for this event has been designated as Family-Style. The food bill will be split evenly among all attendees. Attendees will be responsible for paying for their beverages. Please note that flexibility is an important part of family-style dining, and if you want to attend, you must be amenable to what the group/AO will order. You don't have to eat everything that is requested, but everyone pays equally, whether you eat everything or not. If this definition of Family-Style Dining doesn't feel comfortable, this may not be the right type of event for you. In addition, if you have ANY dietary restrictions or ingredients you do not wish to consume, then you may want to skip this event. Ordering dishes modified to fit someone's dietary needs or personal tastes will alter the true flavors of those dishes for the rest of the group.
• PARKING INFO: There is a parking structure, and the first 2 hours are free. The 3rd hour will cost $10.00.
