Do it at the Empress. Why screw around? It will be a wedding dinner no one will forget.

The Marriot's Fire and Water is well equipped for that sort of thing.

The Empress is probably too pricey for just a rehearsal. How about Med Grill. Or the Fifth Street Bar and Grill. My sister-in-law had her rehearsal dinner there and they loved it. Just call ahead to let them know you're coming.

Isn't Med Grill under new ownership or something? I think the name has changed, and unfortunately, so had the food (whether that's related to the name change [new owners?] I do not know).
Know it all.

It depends if youare talking about Med Grill on Fort or Moxie's Med Grill that used to be the Med Grill on Yates.

I'm talking about the MG on Fort. It's no longer called Med Grill which leads me to believe the operation has changed hands.

5th St accommodated a party of 16 of us who descended upon them without reservations last Sunday afternoon. The place was pretty busy but they still managed to make room for us within 15 minutes and the service was really good. Pretty impressive. The lunch menu prices were good too, with everything being either $5, $10 or $15. I think the dinner menu goes up to $20

I'm going to second Swans private room and Marriot's Fire and Water. Good food at both. I was thinking wedding and unforgettable memories with the Empress. Why does everyone think it is so expensive? They put on big dinners for groups all the time and have it down like clockwork. You will never get better or more professional service than you get at the Empress. And maybe it is a bit much for a rehersal. I guess my mind slipped and I was thinking reception.

Swans Collard room is nice, the warm brick and big old beams create a cozy atmosphere.
