Here's the lowdown: Start your evening in one of three grand Parlours for a delicious, five course menu and music. Guys and Dolls get a choice of every entrée. At 9:30 p.m, the dinner hall changes to a jazzing Speakeasy Soiree. Join the card games (the house will comp a little poker dough); sneak down to the pavilion for our Bourbon and Cigar lounge; or in true prohibition style, bottoms up with a Sidecar, Bees Nee or Gin and Tonic, and dance under the stars with swinging music. Complimentary champagne toast for the midnight countdown and balloon drop. Get all dolled up in your finest. Dinner starts at 8 p.m.; Speakeasy Soiree starts at 9:30 p.m. Joint closes at 1 a.m. or until the spirits run out. Dinner and Speakeasy Soiree: $75 per person Speakeasy Soiree (starts at 9:30) p.m. $35 per person Pre-paid reservations required. As with any secret joint, your password is your confirmation. 21+. Cash bar.
