We were interested in having a small lunch meeting. It would just be 4 people, but obviously we would like to be able to hear ourselves talk. How is the noise? Is it recommended to make a reservation for a booth, or a certain set of tables?

We've been there a dozen or more times. Never experienced a problem with noise levels. Shouldn't be an issue.. no bad seats in the place

It should be fine. Unless it's the weekend, it's usually not crowded at lunch time. Even in the evening it's not generally a place that would be loud to the point of not being able to hold a conversation.

I have been there only once ( Nov 18 ) . We seated on the patio outside . No noise . I loved the food and the service. Maybe it will be too cold for the patio now. I don't think you will find noise inside , but I can't tell for sure !
