Eturnal might be casually referred to as a hole-in-the-wall, given it's generally unadvertised publicity and eccentricities, but it is also literally a hole in the wall - a super quiet, rather dingy back road that isn't quite an alley but is comprised of completely boarded-up storefronts has a nice big hole smashed through the dusty charcoal bricks. That hole has been neatened up a bit, and is decorated differently depending on the time of day and the owner's mood. There is no sign, and the hole is often only visible when one looks at it straight on.
Once inside, be it through a magic veil or strings of shadowy beads, the main dining room is surprisingly large. A mismatched collection of upholstered chairs and tables, perched on top of an equally patchwork mess of rugs, is grouped into small conversation sets on the left, while the right is home to curtained booths. The booths have small signs on the outside that allow the inhabitants to signal waitstaff without revealing themselves. At the back of the room, evenly spaced between the two sides but slanted towards the conversation sets, is a small stage with a magically enhanced sound system. The booths can opt in or out of the music individually.
The back wall on the conversation side of the room is actually a long, low counter, with oddly identical stools - except for one stool, slightly off from the middle of the line, which is silver rather than black and kind of resembles a throne. It does not belong to anyone or have any special purpose, and the owner finds it very entertaining when it is the only empty seat. The counter itself is plain stainless steel, and looks onto part of the kitchen, which extends the length of the room and has a secondary access on the other side of the stage, so that waitstaff can serve the booths without interrupting.
Behind the stage, accessed through the openings to the kitchen, is a circular staircase and is actually capable of functioning as an escalator - or an endless staircase, should someone attempt to climb it without permission. The main floor also has several back rooms for storage, including an extensive set of meat lockers, and a hidden back entrance that leads only to an easily sterilized room for processing... fresh meat.
Upstairs, for those so permitted, is the blood room. It is easily cleaned and far from ornate, but its storage rooms are quite... specific. There are a number of smaller rooms available, each of which lock securely and are enchanted to near indestructibility. Many blood-feeders are aggressive when thirsty, after all. Those rooms can also be rented and shared, and Eturnal occasionally sources live individuals for particularly tastes.
