I come here frequently enough, especially when it was the brant house. it still has a similar vibe for the lounge/night club portion and to be honest its a pretty decent night out. with that said in terms of the night life portion, I give it 4 stars.
However I was extremely disappointed in terms of the stipulations and rules in order to throw a big dinner party. I.e.; lack of split bill option for guests (really? bill can only be split 6 ways? thats so inconvenient for bigger parties to figure out money issues when its cheque-time), not allowed to bring cake and only able to purchase one from them for $50+, set menu that wasn't all that appealing and lacked selection for the price plus a additional gratuity fee of 18%. Not to mention a late policy and paying for meals for guests that are no shows...
I personally understand the paying for meals for no shows especially when you state a certain number of guests and the food is made ahead of time and I also understand having some sort of late policy. I also understand that this works for corporate parties, where the company picks up the cheque.
However, I will say that many parties are thrown that are not corporate, and guests pay for their own bill, and its still revenue. These stipulations combined are enough for me to take my business elsewhere because it makes everything difficult when people just want to focus on their potential celebration. A party event should be easy and one should not have to worry about gathering guests together and then having to worry about how to pay for the bill on one card or a few cards. This shows me that they need more understanding about customer base and service but I will say, at least everything is laid out in front of you, and actually it makes the decision either you're in or you're out.
