The Little Black Book – Clandestine Events + Experiences

The Little Black Book by Clandestine

Curating Confidence for every corporate moment.

The Problem

Too many “exclusive” venues are trendy, noisy, or unreliable. One wrong table can ruin an executive dinner — and your reputation.

The Shift

The LBB isn’t a directory. It’s a corporate filter. Every listing is vetted for privacy, flow, transport, and trust. If it’s here, it’s been scouted.

The Proof

For 13+ years, Clandestine has been the quiet force behind executive dinners and offsites. That same insider network now lives inside the LBB.

Clancy’s – New Orleans, LA

Modern Cajun • Fine Dining

Corporate Intel:

PDR: Upstairs private dining room seats up to 12. Semi-private — no door, with another small room adjoining.
Privacy: Intimate feel, but not airtight. Best for trusted client groups or small boards.
Transport: Located in a residential Uptown neighborhood. Parking limited and awkward. Always book black car service from downtown hotels.
Booking Window: 3–4 weeks for PDR. Locals protect their tables; midweek is easier.
Food Context: Upscale Cajun with local polish. Menu rotates with seasonal seafood.
Insider Move: Order the cold-smoked soft shell crab when in season — legendary.

Kelley’s Note:

Garth has been tending bar here for 30+ years. If your exec wants to feel like a true New Orleanian, this is the move.

Jeffrey’s – Austin, TX

American Steakhouse • French Accents

Corporate Intel:

PDR: Private upstairs dining room, seats up to 20. Fully enclosed with AV and dedicated staff.
Privacy: Excellent — this is Austin’s safest boardroom dinner bet.
Transport: Clarksville neighborhood, 5–10 min from downtown. Valet is limited; best to book SUVs or sprinters.
Booking Window: 4–6 weeks for prime times. Earlier if during SXSW or Formula 1 week.
Food Context: Decadent steakhouse with French touches. Known for dry-aged steaks, oysters, truffled deviled eggs.
Signature Features: The soufflé is a ritual — order it early. The martini cart is a showstopper and signals prestige.
Insider Move: Always request the upstairs room. Downstairs feels buzzy, but not private enough for C-suite conversations.

Kelley’s Note:

If you want an executive dinner that oozes power and polish, Jeffrey’s upstairs is the room. Order the soufflé and let the martini cart roll in — it’s theater for the boardroom.

Hotel Emma – San Antonio, TX

American • Historic Luxury Hotel

Corporate Intel:

PDR: Multiple enclosed options seating 10–50. Includes intimate Cellar for small groups and larger banquet rooms for retreats.
Privacy: Excellent — staff is trained for corporate discretion.
Transport: In the Pearl District. Valet seamless; arrange sprinters for board groups. 10 min from downtown.
Booking Window: 4–8 weeks depending on room size. Convention weeks book out early.
Food Context: Elevated hotel dining with Texas heritage. Locally sourced, polished without being fussy.
Signature Features: The Library Bar is iconic for post-dinner drinks — private, moody, and ideal for deal-closing conversations.
Insider Move: Book the Cellar for strategy dinners — it feels secret and high-trust. For offsites, combine a PDR with an overnight block for seamless flow.

Kelley’s Note:

Hotel Emma is San Antonio’s power hub. End in the Library Bar — it’s where executives loosen ties and real deals get inked.
