MEMBERS ONLY
JANUARY 20th, 2026 @ 7pm
City: New York, NY
Restaurant Venue: Coqodaq, 12 East 22nd Street
Reservation Capacity: 5
COST: $100 minimum spend per person (this reservation is via Dorsia). Any remaining cost above $100 per person will be split evenly between all members at the table. The Table For 12 will pay for this dinner on the backend and will charge each member afterwards. If you cancel or do not show up (for any reason including work travel, sickness, traffic, etc.) you will be charged the FULL PRICE and will be required to split the bill evenly as if you had attended.
** It will be expected the group will split the bill evenly between all members who attend **
Cuisine: At COQODAQ, we know there’s no such thing as the “perfect recipe,” which is why our mission is simple: we obsess over an unending pursuit to deliver Better Fried Chicken. We believe this isn’t about achieving perfection, but rather about sparking joy and bringing happiness and deliciousness to everyone that walks through our doors.
Expectations: Expect to arrive on time and dine with 4 other The Table For 12 members. You may have already connected with some attendees in our community group, but if not, you’ll be dining with strangers who quickly become friends. Once seated, introduce yourself to the table (no one bites—we screen for zombies). You’ll find it easy to jump into natural conversation.
While the table fills, order a drink—alcoholic or non, your choice—and take a look at the menu. Feel free to talk openly about what looks good:
“Who wants the octopus?”
“Does the squash blossom salad look good to anyone?”
This is normal at The Table For 12. We’re comfortable sharing opinions and ordering collaboratively. Once everyone has arrived—or about 15–20 minutes after the reservation time—the table should begin finalizing orders. Most dinners are not prix fixe, though some may be. When helpful, we’ll offer suggestions on how to order for the table.
Most members choose to order appetizers and entrées family-style so everyone can taste a variety of dishes. Allergies, dietary restrictions, and personal preferences are always respected. If you prefer to order your own courses, that’s perfectly fine—no awkwardness, no judgment.
The point of the club is simple: sharing great food with people who value the experience just as much as you do.
