Lombardi's on the bay vs. Lombardi's on the Sound

This is a really stupid question, but does anyone know if they cost the same? I know the menu is the same...

I don't know if they are the same, but be careful with at least the Sound because after the lady went through her whole 'shpeel' and gave me what I thought was the price per person plus all the extra taxes and fees she THEN adds all the way at the bottom that they charge an EXTRA $10pp for the view!!!!! I thought that was so insane! I mean really ~ if you're going to charge for 'the view' don't tell me ~ work it into the price! Watch out!

Lob is south shore and Los is north shore. Lob is smaller and has a much more glitzy new world feel. Los is larger and has a more European glamor to it. Lombardis themselves charges $10pp more for their waterfront locations vs their other location (villa lombardis). I had my heart set on lob but when we compared their package to what we got at our venue there was just no comparison. Hth!

I'm not really sure if they're the same. Sound is technically at a country club, so that might affect pricing? Make sure both can accomodate all of your guests, as I think Bay is smaller.

Ugh my post got cut off. Anyway, lob is obviously very small and originally we thought we would have 150 ppl max but now not sure as we are inviting many more. I know many of them will not come but you never know... I know I could have the dance floor in cocktail hour room but that is not ideal. Blah

I would contact them asap or cut your list. I spoke to los when looking for a rehearsal location and they were very nice. You need to be sure they at least have your date available! Good luck.
