Rehearsal Dinner

I am getting married at Chateau La Mer in July 2010. This is a Saturday night. I am curious if anyone has any good places in the area for a rehearsal dinner. We have a lot of guests from out of town and do not want them to travel too far from the area. We are looking for something that is reasonable priced because my future mother-in-law insists on paying for it. Any ideas?

Also, when does everyone have their rehearsal dinner... the night before?
