RD - private room?

We are thinking of having our rehearsal dinner at Cirella's in Melville. We went fri night for dinner and the food was amazing and the service was great. Its also right down the road from the hotel our OOT guests will be at. The only thing we werent sure about was that there is no private room. Its one square room - not big at all, our party of 30 will take up about half the restaurant and they would close it down for us if we had 50 ppl, to give you an idea of the size. Its pretty intimate. Is it a big deal to not have a private room? Our reservations were at 8 and by the time we were done at like 10:30 it had quieted down considerably.

Thoughts?

Re: RD - private room?

I went to a RD last year where they did that. There was no private room and the restaurant was sorta small so the RD took up most of the tables. It worked out just fine. There were others eating at the restaurant off to the side and didn't get in their way at all and we all had a great time. If youre ok with it then i dont see a problem. The food at this place was amazing, the place itself was real nice too and nobody was bothered by the fact that there were others eating in there. I am sure the bride and groom didnt care either.
