Frequently asked questions
What are the different dining spaces available and their capacity limits?
Chotto Matte offers three main dining spaces: Claude's (private) seats up to 20 or accommodates 50 standing with a £5,000 minimum spend; Itamae (semi-private) seats up to 40 with a £8,000 minimum spend and features an open sushi counter; and the Bar & Lounge (semi-private) accommodates up to 60 standing with a £10,000 minimum spend and includes live DJ and floor-to-ceiling bi-foldable windows. All minimum spends exclude the mandatory 15% service charge.
What are the total costs including all mandatory charges?
All minimum food and beverage spends are subject to a mandatory 15% service charge. For example, Claude's £5,000 minimum becomes £5,750 total, Itamae's £8,000 becomes £9,200 total, and the Bar & Lounge's £10,000 becomes £11,500 total. The minimum spend must be prepaid as a deposit when signing the contract and is redeemed against the final bill on the event day.
What are the standard operating hours for dining events?
Most dining events operate from 18:00 until 00:00 (6pm to midnight). Some lunch events can run from 12:00-16:00, and there may be flexibility for earlier setup times around 16:30 for event teams. The venue can accommodate events running until late night or 1am depending on the space and arrangement.
What dining options are required for groups?
All guests must dine from the same set menu for groups of nine and over. Sample group dining menus start from £95 per person and are served sharing style at the table, featuring dishes from four distinct kitchens curated by Executive Chef Jordan Sclare. The venue accommodates dietary requirements including vegan and vegetarian alternatives, but everyone must follow the same menu format.
What entertainment and technical facilities are available?
The Bar & Lounge includes a live DJ and DJ booth for standing events. Claude's has a DJ booth available for standing events only. The venue can provide microphones for speeches and ceremonies, and some spaces can accommodate small stages or raised platforms. Floor-to-ceiling bi-foldable windows in the Bar & Lounge create an open atmosphere.
What is the booking and payment process?
To secure a booking, you need a signed copy of the standard contract and the full minimum spend prepaid as a deposit. This deposit is then redeemed against the final bill on the day of the event. The venue requires these elements to confirm any reservation.
Can spaces accommodate both seated dining and standing reception formats?
Yes, but capacity varies significantly by format. Claude's seats 20 but holds 50 standing, while the Bar & Lounge only accommodates standing events for up to 60 guests. Itamae is seated dining only for up to 40 guests. The first floor exclusive hire can accommodate up to 140 seated or 200 standing with a £15,000 minimum spend.
What catering packages are available beyond the set menus?
Beyond group dining menus from £95 per person, the venue offers canapé menus for standing receptions, welcome drinks packages, and cocktails from £10. Wine and beer start from £6.50, and welcome Prosecco can be included in packages. All catering must meet the minimum spend requirements for each space.
Are there any restrictions on event types or guest behavior?
The venue specializes in Nikkei cuisine and maintains a vibrant atmosphere with live cooking experiences. Events must align with the restaurant's upscale dining concept, and all guests dining together must follow the same menu format. The venue caters to corporate events, celebrations, and private parties but maintains its restaurant standards.
What makes each dining space unique for different event needs?
Claude's offers complete privacy with its own bar for intimate groups up to 20 seated. Itamae provides a semi-private experience with front-row seats to the open sushi counter for up to 40 guests. The Bar & Lounge creates a party atmosphere with DJ, large windows, and standing capacity for 60, while the first floor exclusive hire offers the full restaurant experience overlooking the robata grill and sushi bar for larger groups.
