Capacity and tags come from restaurant-owned group, function or event material. They are an enquiry filter—not live availability or final booking terms.

Each count uses the same current evidence cohort. “Closer fit” means the recorded maximum is no more than ten guests above the requested size; it does not prove one-table seating or availability.

Before you enquire

Headcount changes the shortlist—and the questions.

Capacity describes a recorded limit.It may refer to a room, section, whole venue or service style. Read the restaurant record before treating it as a seated-table fit.

Larger groups usually need more detail.At 15 to 25 guests, ask about the layout, group menu, deposit, service charge and whether the space is shared.

Availability is a separate answer.Cenavie can narrow the evidence set. The restaurant must confirm the requested date and final terms.
