Deposits and Exclusive Room Usage
In order to secure your private dining reservation, we require submission of your signed contract and a non-refundable deposit due at the time that you submit your signed contract. Payment of the deposit can be made using our Deposit Payment Form, over the phone, or in person. Forms of acceptable payment include credit/debit cards, business checks, or cash. While we apologize for any inconvenience, we cannot accept personal checks.
If your final cost of food and beverage, before service charge, taxes, and any applicable fees, does not amount to the required minimum, then the balance between the required minimum and your final food and beverage cost will be added to your final bill labeled as a unmet minimum.
Service Charge and Taxes
A twenty percent (20%) service charge and all appropriate sales taxes will be added to all food and beverage charges. If you use a credit card, we will charge an additional 3% to help offset processing costs. This amount is not more than what we pay in fees. We do not surcharge for debit cards.
Audio/Visual
$Baia currently has audio/visual capabilities available in The Tuscany Room for any photo slideshows, business presentations, or videos, etc. that you may want to incorporate into your event. Please notify us in advance if you desire to use our A/V system. There are no additional fees for this service; however, we strongly urge and encourage that you come into the venue prior to your event for advanced testing of all equipment and computer compatibility. This testing will ensure that your presentation goes off without a hitch.
Decorations
$You are more than welcome to bring any flowers, linens, balloons, candles (encased), or any other table decorations for your event with the exception of glitter. We are happy to accommodate any storage needs for floral decorations on the day of your event and to assist in decorating for your event. We ask that nothing be affixed to the walls or windows of the restaurant. We also have local vendors that we use for rentals, tables, linens, etc. and would be happy to arrange for you.
