ERIA Birthdays
A relaxed but elevated 40th birthday venue in San Francisco for friends and family, with an easy dinner, a bar and a room that feels like yours.
40th birthday
Forty is an odd place to be. You are not trying to relive your twenties, and you are not ready for a banquet hall either. Most people want something easy that still feels like a night out they planned on purpose.
ERIA Marina fits. It is a private room in the Marina District with a bar, lounge seating and a dining room, and it suits a crowd that includes close friends, parents and the occasional kid at an early hour.
Casual, but still polished
The room does the styling work for you. Gold pendant lights over the bar and arched windows onto Chestnut Street mean you are not renting chairs and hanging balloons to make a bare room feel special.
Keep the food family-style or plated, whichever suits your friends. Neither feels out of place here.
Friends and family in the same room
A fortieth often blends two guest lists that rarely meet. A reception area at the entrance gives people a soft landing, the lounge gives your friends somewhere to drift, and the dining tables bring everyone together for the meal.
Plan it without it becoming a project
Pick a date, tell us roughly how many are coming, and tour the space. We will talk through catering and beverage options with you, and you can decide how much of the evening you want to shape yourself.
