What are Buffalo Chophouse's policies for large parties (6+ guests)?

In order to make best use of our capacity limitations and serve as many guests as we can with limited space, we have found it necessary to implement a few additional guidelines for reservations made for larger parties. This is to alleviate “No Shows” that financially impact the restaurant, and more importantly, the livelihoods of our staff. We thank you for your compliance with these additional requirements during this time.

Parties of six or more will require an advance deposit to reserve a table. That deposit will be applied towards the dinner bill.

$30 per person for reservations Monday – Thursday
$60 per person for reservations Friday and Saturday

If you are a party larger than six, we do need your entire party to be here before you are seated, and your entire party needs to be here within 15 minutes of the reservation time.
We may contact you about your reservation, so please be sure to provide an accurate phone number and e-mail address when making your reservation.
To ensure quality service for all of our guests, no separate checks. We will happily divide the check amount evenly for you.
20% gratuity us automatically added to parties of six or more.
