-On consumption / ala carte (good if you do not know how many people will show up or stay for how long)
-Pre-determined spend amounts - A total budget amount that is pre-paid and used as a credit. (Great for people who want to make sure they stick to a budget!)
-Cash bars where your guests pay for their own food and beverage. A 50% deposit is required as a credit and a cc authorization form is required for any balance not met. No exclusivities of space can be granted if pre paid minimums are not met.

FESTIVÁL is a new concept in dining. We are a 'Farm-to-Bar' cocktail café.

The cocktails and cuisine are at the vanguard of taste. There is no coursing. The food and drinks come out as they are ready. We are best known for our share plates however there are larger menu items available for those looking for a full meal.

There are no substitutions or custom ordering. The menu is fixed. We are the perfect establishment for date night or a large party!
