At 6 Plates, we are all about bringing people together for authentic, peaceful, and meaningful connections through in-person dinners.Below are key guidelines to keep things fun, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
Before Dinner
Communication:We love the thrill of discovering new people face-to-face. If you end up meeting any of your fellow 6 Plates pairings before your dinner, keep the contact minimal to preserve that exciting first-meet feeling.Safety:Let a friend or family member know you will be attending a 6 Plates dinner. Share the restaurant’s location and your expected arrival time for an extra layer of security.Preparation:Bring a positive attitude, a curious mind, and your assigned table number. If you like, check the restaurant’s menu online beforehand to familiarize yourself with the options.
During Dinner
Arrival Time:Arrive punctually to respect others. Last-minute cancellations affect the entire group.Personal Safety:Keep an eye on your belongings and your drink. Be mindful of how much you consume so you can remain clear-headed. Check with wait staff for any allergens in your order.Etiquette:Come hungry. We have selected restaurants based on your dietary and budget preferences, so try the food and let us know what you think. If sharing dishes, discuss them first so everyone is comfortable with the choices. Most restaurants can split the bill, but it is not guaranteed; bringing cash can help. Follow local tipping customs (often 15-20%) and consider tipping generously for good service.Behavior:Focus on enjoying great conversation and delicious food. Engage openly, listen kindly, and have fun getting to know your fellow diners.Embrace Diversity:Everyone brings unique perspectives and experiences. Be respectful and inclusive in conversation. Sensitive topics, such as certain jokes or political views, may be uncomfortable for others. Stay as long as you are enjoying yourself and leave whenever it feels right.Food Preferences:If you have dietary restrictions, inform the wait staff beforehand so they can accommodate you.
After Dinner
Continued Interaction:Only share personal details with people you trust. Stay a bit longer for our “last drink” gathering, where you can mingle with other 6 Plates diners in your area.Safety:Never transfer money or share financial information with someone you have just met. If you notice any suspicious or inappropriate behavior, report it right away via our Customer Support channel.Transportation:If you have consumed alcohol, consider taxis, rideshares, or public transportation. Avoid rides from anyone under the influence.Keep the Night Going (Coming Soon):The end of dinner doesn’t have to be the end of the night. Grab a night cap with other groups of 6 Plate diners from around your city. We’ll let you know where to head after dinner to keep the evening alive.
