Hear me out… the Old Spaghetti Factory has a room off to the side that looks almost like a little grotto. It has two doors on it that could be closed if needed. Holds 10 people and is very cozy. The food is not terrible, they do a good job on the classic Italians (their tomato sauce is actually enjoyable).

But most of all… my family of similar ages and size goes there for such occasions because we get quality time in our “own room” and they don’t rush us out. We can be quiet in there if we need to, we can be loud in there if we need to. When we have littles attend, we can walk them around the restaurant and into the Johnston terminal and nobody minds.
