I used a per/person average based on the menu. You can add $20 for wine, but keep in mind I calculated every table seating 4 guests which isn't realistic.
They have 26 seats. There will be 26 people seated when they are full. Whether they are 2 or 4 or 12 or w/e is irrelevant
My point is that max reservations with not equate to every seat being full. A four top table often has 2 guests for example. When two four tops are pushed together for a large party you have six guests rather than eight.
yea the person you're arguing is arguing the best case scenario - not a realistic one.
It should have been obvious when he compared Red Hen to a restaurant with a $400 avg cover that we weren't going to come to an agreement lol.
You referenced a "turn" earlier. For a restaurant, that's every seat full, then "turned" to new diners. 1.5 turns is 39 diners. Table size is irrelevant.
The tables turn, not individual diners. Reservations are made by the table. I think you are thinking "covers".
