The Garden

Madame Puffs & Thai Bistro

Our garden room trades its dinner tables for a runway. Flowers climb the walls, lanterns hang from the trellis, and the kitchen sends out the flavors our guests already know and love — this time, with a show.

What should I wear?

Fashion-forward attire is encouraged. Whether your style is classic, modern, or bold, we invite guests to dress for an elevated evening. Garden attire is not required.

Is food included?

Passed hors d’oeuvres will be served throughout the cocktail reception. Dinner is included only with VIP Table Experience tickets.

Outside beverages not permitted for this evening's private event. The full bar will be open throughout the night, and every ticket includes a welcome drink.

What's the difference between the VIP packages?

Both VIP packages admit two guests with premier runway seating and your choice of a featured bottle of wine or two sponsored signature cocktails per guest. Secret Garden VIP adds passed bites and priority check-in; the VIP Table Experience adds a reserved dining table and full dinner for two, before or after the show.

Tickets are non-refundable but fully transferable — send your confirmation to a friend and we'll update the name at the door.
