Rehearsal Dinner in Quincy/Braintree area

I am starting to plan a rehearsal dinner in the Quincy and Braintree area. The dinner will be on a Friday or Saturday evening. Here are the particulars that we're looking for:

-- Private Room
-- Must have ample parking
-- Looking for price range of $15-22 per person (could be buffet or sit down) inclusive of room rental, gratuity and fees
-- We don't want to have to do set up or clean up at a private club

So far we have found that The Common Market Restaurants and The Fours fit our needs. Any other suggestions?

Thanks for your help!

      Siros at Marina Bay has a private room. We had an 80th birthday dinner there and were pleased with the food and service. I second the Granite Links idea as well.

      In these weak economic times I would try some restaurants that might normally seam high priced. Try Alba in Quincy Center. They do a great job with private parties, and I'm sure that Leo would be willing to make some kind of decent deal. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed.
      Enjoy,

        I second Alba. They have private rooms upstairs and the food is good.

        We went to a wedding at the neighborhood club and the food was very good.

          another vote for the Neighborhood Club. Should meet your needs.

          What about the Tavern at Granite Links? This has been my go to place for business lunches, as most of the restaurants in Marina Bay are closed for lunch in the winter. The views from the dining room are great and they look like the type of place that has separate rooms set aside for events. Parking is free and plentiful.

            The Common Market is great for rehearsal dinners. You could also look into The Neighborhood Club in Quincy - off of Burgin Pkwy.

              Thanks for the suggestions - we're actually having the reception at The Neighborhood Club.

              The Bay Point Inn does have a private room and I believe they are in your price range. Food is too fancy, but pretty solid.
