​

A: We have 2 tables in the dining room that can seat up to 10 guests, and 2 more that can fit up to 8.  It is our policy to split groups of 11 or more. This policy allows us to take the best care of our guests.  Large parties are always welcome, but be ready to split up, or wait for one of the large tables to come available.
