Got a Per Se reservation- have questions

I've eaten at Per Se, and have a medical condition which limits my wine consumption, and have had meals at starred restaurants in Paris, with an apprentice who is 19, and on a budget. We both simply explained our limits, and never had a problem or attitude issues.
These people thrive on providing incredibly good service, and they're income is not based on your wine consumption.
I'd say be honest with them (they'll know/asume anyway), and let them help you, that's what they're there for;make sure you express your love food and cooking, they'll love you back, ask for a kitchen tour, ENJOY !!!
as for the table, I have no idea, though again you should just be honest with them up-front, maybe stop in and ask what to do.
