Beast on a Saturday

I am looking at options for a birthday gathering on the 31st. I was reading up and want to try something new.
I am leaning to Beast, I am guessing 10 friends, it could be more or less depending.
questions. I assume its crowded, how is the Sat wait, any reservations?
We may go anywhere from 8-10pm for both food and drinks.
If I have more than 10, might it be too many people etc.

Thanks for any feedback

You definitely need reservations on weekend nights at Beast. As for the numbers, I'd just call them and ask how many they can accommodate.

Thanks, they can go up to 25-30 so I should be ok

talk to Mick Pearce at Tavern on Dean. Reserve the big table in the gallery room for your birthday. open and airy and not as tight as Beast. Easily seats ten or more.

Thanks, I may stick to my original choice, but I do want to go there sometime

think I have to revamp the plan a bit, I just found out JONAH MATRANGA is playing Union Hall that evening. He is one of my favorite performers ever so that will take precedence

A haiku for you...

Beast, on a friday?
You work so, so very hard.
Treat yourself. Bonnie's.

beast on friday is lovely. if you decide to go out to dinner at 10 p.m. fried cheese and beet salad? love.

Beast is underrated.

we are just going to Beast at 6pm, a few friends have evening work on fridays
