Ideal for: Small social groups seeking a relaxed, seated dinner or a focused tasting or workshop in a compact, contained space.

What sets it apart: The Nook permits hosts to bring their own DJ and play their own music through an in-room PA system.

What guests say: The Nook is warm and well appointed and benefits from attentive, friendly service during hosted events.
