We work with each group individually to determine the seating, menu, and format that best suit the occasion.

Is Volterra a good option for rehearsal dinners or corporate gatherings?

Yes.

Volterra does not have a completely enclosed private dining room. We do, however, offer semi-private dining options and can configure areas of the restaurant for larger gatherings. Our team can discuss the options available for your particular group and occasion.

Can larger parties order from Volterra’s regular dinner menu?

This can be a great option for business meetings, presentations, celebrations, and other private or semi-private gatherings. Contact us to discuss availability and the needs of your group.
