  • Check the current menu, kitchen hours and whether your group needs a reservation.
  • Confirm payment methods, the total including tax and service charges, and any reservation deposit or cancellation terms.
  • For mobility needs, ask about the route from parking to the table and restroom; for dietary needs, discuss preparation with the kitchen.
