    Quick Planning Tips

    • Book early for Dec 24–25 (Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day brunch slots go first).
    • Pick your vibe: buffet = variety; set menu / fine dining = slower, more intimate celebration.
    • Go for lunch/brunch if dining with kids or older family members (less crowd, easier pacing).
