    We booked for DATE NIGHT with a set menu for dinner and wine and painting so I don't understand why you would host a cooperate function at the same time in the same location. Our table was situated right between their buffet so we constantly had people standing right next to our table and it was SUPER noisy. I was extremely disappointed since I had booked a table two weeks in advance and asked for a quiet place.
