Questions we get asked

Which venue is right for my group size?

Our restaurants can accommodate everything from smaller private gatherings to full buyouts of up to 600 guests. Explore our restaurants by group size, or share your city, guest count and event format in your inquiry. Our Events Team will recommend the spaces best suited to your event.

What's the difference between private dining, semi-private and a buyout?

Private dining gives your group an enclosed room of its own, while a semi-private space gives you a defined area within the restaurant, partially separated from other guests. A full buyout gives your group exclusive use of the entire restaurant. Each restaurant lists the event spaces available and their capacities so you can compare your options.

Are holiday menus set menus, and is there a group minimum?

Yes. Larger groups dine from a set menu, with the group size at which this applies varying by restaurant. Reception, canapé and family-style options are also available, and you can view each restaurant's menus as you explore your options.

What are the deposit and confirmation terms?

To secure your event, we require a signed agreement and a 50% deposit based on your minimum spend. Your Events Manager will guide you through the planning process, with final menu and beverage selections confirmed two weeks before your event and your guaranteed guest count due 72 hours in advance. Your final guest count will be used for billing purposes.

Cancellation terms vary by restaurant, event space and date, and will be outlined in your event agreement. For full or partial restaurant buyouts during the festive season, deposits are non-refundable for cancellations after November 1.

How is minimum spend determined?

Rather than charging a separate room rental fee, our event spaces are reserved based on a minimum food and beverage spend. Minimums vary depending on the restaurant, event space, date and day of the week, with higher minimums typically applying to peak December dates.

Your Events Manager will confirm the applicable minimum spend as part of your personalised event proposal.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?

Yes. Our restaurants can accommodate dietary requirements and allergies with advance notice, with vegetarian and vegan options available. Share any requirements in your inquiry and your Events Manager will confirm the options for your group.

When should I book my holiday event?

We recommend booking as early as possible, particularly if you have a preferred December date. Peak dates can book weeks or months in advance, while later requests may still be possible depending on availability. Our Events Team will help you find the best options available for your group.

Are weekday lunches and early-evening events available?

Yes. Holiday lunches and early-evening events are available at most of our restaurants and can offer more flexibility during busy December dates. Share your preferred timing in your inquiry and our Events Team will confirm the available options.

Are the venues wheelchair accessible?

Yes. Every restaurant has step-free event space, and a few individual rooms are reached by stairs — the mezzanine levels at Coast, Trattoria and Black+Blue Toronto, and the La Luce Room at Italian Kitchen. Share any accessibility requirements in your inquiry and our Events Team will recommend spaces that suit your group.

Is audiovisual available for presentations?

Yes. Audiovisual is available at all nine restaurants for presentations, speeches and corporate programming. Share your requirements in your inquiry and your Events Manager will confirm the options available at your restaurant.
