Tim McLoone's Supper Club

Has anyone had their wedding or been to a wedding at Tim McLoone's Supper Club in Asbury Park?  I'm planning a wedding for June 2013 and am just starting to look at places.  I am really trying to find someplace that is not a typical ballroom/banquet hall, but still pretty affordable.  I visited McLoone's last night and I did like it.  I love that it's right on the boardwalk and there would be so many great photo opportunities.  And it has great reviews.  But there were a few concerns and two I have been thinking about are
1. The booth seating.  On the positive side it would be more comfortable than chairs.  But the downside is how inconvenient it would be for people to easily get up and walk around.
2.  The dance floor looks tiny.  I'll probably have around 120 people and I'm sure I'd have a bunch of people who want to dance..so this could be a problem.

If you've been there, let me know what you think!

    I haven't eaten or attended an event at The Supper Club, but I love The Pier House in Long Branch. Their food is top notch for sure. I would be concerned about the ease of movement due to the booths and also the size of the dance floors as you mentioned. It's really beautiful looking though and I have eaten at the Grille downstairs and it is excellent.

    </div><div>These are the two exact reasons we chose to go with a different venue for our June 2011 wedding. I loved Tims and the food is great but the booth seating was a concern if Aunt Sally had to use the bathroom 5 people would have to get up. We also knew that a lot of our friends and family would be on the dance floor and it did not seem like enough space. It was a fun and different venue but just did not have 100% of what we wanted.

    I think you can do better for 120 people.  Have you seen Matisse in Belmar on the beach or Highlawn Pavillion in West Orange?
