Start with the people you’re inviting

Our Private Basement Dining Room is separate from the main restaurant and seats up to 45 guests in the confirmed dining layout. Start with the number of people who need a place at the table, including children. Tell us if you have a particular seating arrangement in mind so we can confirm the setup for your occasion.

Some families like to sit together around one table. Others want to seat grandparents, children or guests who haven’t met before in a way that helps them talk. You don’t need a finished seating plan before you enquire. A rough headcount and any must-have arrangements give us a place to start.

Choose the meal with the group in mind

Our private celebrations page explains the options for family occasions and private dining. Our restaurant menu is a starting point for choosing familiar dishes. When you enquire, tell us whether you have dishes in mind or would like to discuss a private dining menu.

If guests have dietary requirements, collect those details as part of the replies. Tell us how many people each requirement applies to so we can discuss the menu with the whole table in mind. Confirm the final choices before the dinner and let us know if the number of guests changes.

If you want a cake as part of the evening, speak to us about a celebration cake from our bakery. Share the number of people it needs to serve and any design you’ve been thinking about. Confirm the cake and the timing of the cut as part of the arrangements.

Leave time to enjoy the occasion

Choose the part of the evening that matters most to the couple. That might be a few words from a family member, an old photo shared around the table or a toast before dessert. Tell us if there’s a moment you want to keep free of food service so we can talk through the timing with you.

Let guests know where they’re meeting and whether you want them to arrive together. We’re at SCO 35, Sector 67, Mohali, near CP67 Mall. Share our location and directions with anyone coming from another part of the Tricity. If the private room is confirmed, include its name in the invitation.

Check the date and confirm the setup

Send your preferred date, an estimated headcount and the timing you have in mind through our celebration enquiry page. Mention any seating, menu or cake arrangements you want to discuss. We confirm the date, layout and arrangements before a private event is booked.

If you’re planning a regular restaurant meal, you can reserve a table online. If you’d prefer to celebrate at home or at another venue, see our private party catering options. Pick the setting that works for the people you’re inviting, then confirm the details before sharing the plan.
