Where groups of eight or more keep turning up in the reviews — long tables, share menus, room to spread out.
How this list is built: Venues whose reviews describe them as good for groups, with a kitchen of their own. Ranked by how well each venue fits, not by payment — MenuMap does not sell placement.
