How to Fête in Southwest Gwinnett
Stäge, the chic restaurant that won Peachtree Corners over with its contemporary ambiance and delectable cuisine, is a versatile venue well-suited for hosting a variety of events.
“We do bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, baby showers, birthdays, corporate meetings, happy hours; we cover all of the special events,” co-owner Raquel Stalcup stated.
Space for every occasion
With private dining rooms and a spacious patio, Stäge can accommodate a range of group sizes and preferences. “We have two rooms that open up for an extended room with a maximum capacity of 78,” Stalcup said.
When the large room is divided into two dining rooms, the private dining room holds about 30 people. The semi-private dining room — separate from the restaurant but without doors at either entrance — can seat 40.
For those who don’t require a private space, one side of the main dining room seats 84 guests and can be reserved for your party. Guests seeking an outdoor experience have the option of two patios. “We can seat around 75 on the patios,” Stalcup said.
A complete buyout accommodating 350 people is another option at Stäge.
A culinary and beverage showcase
The philosophy at Stäge, reflected in their open kitchen, is to showcase their talents every day to every customer. Menus change four to six times a year to ensure seasonal ingredients are being used at their freshest. Stäge can handle all allergy and food restrictions, as evidenced by notations on their menu and options to modify dishes.
The restaurant offers flexibility in dining options, including plated courses starting at $45 per person, buffet-style reception starting at $15 per person and family-style sharing.
Tantalizing menu options, like fresh pasta with short rib Bolognese, the Tomahawk Berkshire bone-in pork chop — which Stalcup vows is the best she’s ever eaten, steaks, sushi, crab-stuffed salmon and herb-roasted chicken, provide selections to please everyone. All event menus allow for substitutions.
“People can choose whatever they’d like. Our menus are very flexible. I love the customization. That’s important to our guests,” Stalcup explained.
For a group of 10 ordering from the menu, not much advance notice is needed. For large parties with three-course menus, the kitchen needs at least three days’ notice to procure ingredients and complete prep work.
Flexibility pours into the bar programs too. Sample options include beer and wine only or two featured cocktails. “It’s up to the guest,” Stalcup said.
Hit it out of the park
Stäge caters for the Braves at Truist Park, and they can cater for you! Make your selections from their catering menus and have food delivered to your specified location in insulated boxes.
Stäge’s private dining décor has been recently revamped, making the rooms even more inviting for guests. “We just renovated our private dining space in July,” Stalcup shared. “We brightened it up and added an accent wall.”
With its exceptional food, impeccable service and sophisticated ambiance, Stäge is the perfect choice for your next event.
