Amoura can host private meetings, corporate dinners and receptions from 8 to 175 people, in a restaurant in South San Francisco, California. The Eastern Mediterranean kitchen serves every event, and the team builds a menu around each group.
Seminars and company events
The restaurant sets aside about 1,000 square feet for private events. Four named rooms cover most corporate formats, and the bar and lounge can be added for a reception before or after a meal. A full buyout is also offered when a team wants the whole building.
Small management meetings fit in The Palm, which seats 18 and is lit by two tall windows over Linden Avenue. The Peninsula Room seats 32 and has a drop-down screen and a sound system, which makes it the most practical room for a short presentation followed by lunch. Larger corporate dinners and receptions go to The Oasis, which seats 55 and carries professional audio and visual equipment.
Rooms and capacities
All four private rooms are soundproof, so a meeting or a speech does not compete with the dining room.
The Palm measures 17 by 15 feet and seats 18. The Peninsula Room measures 31 by 15 feet and seats 32. Its furniture is flexible and can be adjusted to the size of the group. The Oasis measures 49 by 15 feet, seats 55 and includes a temperature-controlled wine cellar. The Cellar is a private dining room built around a round mahogany table that seats 10 to 12, with its own wine cellar where the house wine collection is displayed.
The bar and adjoining lounge have a wine wall, oversized chairs and two flat-screen TVs. For a complete buyout, the restaurant states a seating capacity of 120. The site also gives 175 as the top group size, which presumably counts guests who stand or move between areas, so confirm the layout you need with the team.
Catering
Amoura cooks everything from scratch each day, with local and organic produce where possible. The menu draws on dishes from the Middle East, Greece and Turkey, and the owners trace it to their Palestinian heritage. The family-run team adapts menus to each group.
Amoura also runs a catering division that has served corporate and private clients around the Bay Area for more than 30 years. It handles boxed lunches for offices, on-site corporate cafeterias and full-service events, so a team can combine a meeting at the restaurant with food delivered to another site.
Setting
The restaurant is at 713 Linden Avenue in South San Francisco. The official site does not list weddings, accommodation or parking, so those points are best raised in the first message to the team.
