The restaurant has space for parties ranging from 10 to 350 people. Go to the venue’s website to find out how to book your wedding reception."
"I can enjoy a traditional three-course Thanksgiving dinner in this historic Woodward Avenue mansion for $79 per person, which includes green beans with lemon and rosemary, a choice of sweet potato casserole or Hasselback sweet potatoes with brown sugar, butter and cinnamon, cranberry relish, herbed stuffing and dessert, with a vegetarian option of butternut squash risotto; a $10 deposit per person is required for reservations." - Serena Maria Daniels

"A historic Woodward Avenue mansion is hosting both Thanksgiving brunch and dinner — brunch (6:30 a.m. to 11 a.m.) includes mimosas, Bloody Marys, hot cocoa, and a gift, with adult tickets around $149 and children’s tickets $99, while dinner features butternut squash soup, hand-carved turkey with sage and brioche bread stuffing, white cheddar whipped potatoes, green beans almandine, maple brown sugar sweet potatoes, orange cranberry relish, and a sampling of pie slices; the setting also provides a front-row vantage for the city’s Thanksgiving parade." - Serena Maria Daniels
"The historic restaurant is temporarily closed for a planned renovation and menu overhaul, with reopening timing listed as 'TK' while the owners refresh the space and offerings." - Serena Maria Daniels
