Repeal Night

The End of Prohibition

A Roaring '20s Supper

Tuesday, December 1 · 6:30 PM

In 1933 Prohibition was repealed and the whole country raised a glass. We are throwing that party again. For one night our dining room becomes a 1920s supper club: live jazz from Pocket Change, emerald and gold, coupes raised high, and five courses from Chef Devin. Put on your best suit or your flapper dress. The party starts at half past six.

Repeal Night, the end of Prohibition. A gold champagne coupe overflowing with bubbles inside an Art Deco sunburst arch. December 1.

You Are Invited

the bar is open again

For thirteen years, a drink in America meant a password, a back door and a lookout on the corner. Then on December 5, 1933, Prohibition ended, and the whole country poured itself one out in the open. Jazz spilled into the street. Strangers toasted strangers. It was one of the great parties in history.

We are throwing it again, a few nights early. On Tuesday, December 1, the whole restaurant is yours: live jazz from Pocket Change playing the music of the era, five courses Chef Devin is writing just for this night, and glasses that Lou Dedier will keep full if you let him.

We are not a stuffy room and this is not a stuffy night. Dress up, dance a little, make a new friend at the next table. That is the whole point.

A presto, amici

The Evening

in four acts
ATTO I

The Door

Come in dressed for 1929. Something sparkling finds you at the door, and the band is already warming up.

ATTO II

The Supper

Five courses Chef Devin is writing for this night only. Roman at heart, dressed up for the Jazz Age.

ATTO III

The Band

Pocket Change plays the jazz of the era all night, right in the room with you. Toes will tap. Some will dance.

ATTO IV

The Toast

Then the whole room raises a glass together, the way the country did on December 5, 1933. Cin cin.

Before You Arrive

a few honest answers
What is included in the $75?

A five-course dinner cooked by Chef Devin for this night, plus live jazz from Pocket Change and the party. Drinks are separate: add the wine pairing ($45) or the bubbles package ($60) when you book, or order from the full bar at the table.

Is gratuity included?

A 20% gratuity is added at checkout along with tax, and it goes to our team. Nothing to sort out at the table. Just enjoy the night.

Do I have to dress up?

You do not have to, but you will want to. Suits, bow ties, flapper dresses, pearls, feathers. The more the room looks like 1929, the better the night gets.

How does the guest list work?

When you book, your first name and last initial appear on the guest list on this page. No last names, no other details. If you would rather stay off it, add a note to your reservation or call us and we will keep you off.

When will I see the menu?

Soon. It will be revealed on this page, and everyone with a ticket hears first.

Can you work with allergies or dietary needs?

Yes. Put them in your Resy notes when you book, or give us a call, and we will plan around you.

What time should I get there?

Everyone sits down together at 6:30 PM, so please come a few minutes early. The bubbles will be ready.

Is the restaurant open for regular dinner that night?

No. On December 1 the whole house belongs to Repeal Night. Regular dinner picks back up the next day.

Why December 1 and not December 5?

December 5 is the El Dorado Hills tree lighting, and we would never compete with that. So we are toasting Repeal a few nights early.

What if my plans change?

Cancel by Saturday, November 28 at 6:30 PM for a full refund. After that, tickets are non-refundable, but you are welcome to send a friend in your place.
