Could you have shot these at night?

Yes but it would have been packed with people.

Try to keep circular elements away from the corners when using wide angles: they'll become ellipses.

Good advice. Thanks.

Check the color balance on the 3rd image. It goes from warm to cool left to right. The right side must have been close to windows..Other than that, I like em..

Thank you. Yes that window was casting a lot of light.

Looks nice, I would generally agree with DonJuan about the mood. I don't know that all of these benefit from being super wide. I think you can capture the character of a space more if you do some tighter shots that focus on specific areas. Getting as much information as possible in an image is great for selling the space, but not always desirable when you're trying to showcase the interior design.
Take the 4th shot as an example, there's a lot of empty floor space which isn't adding anything, and although the stairs are cool, I don't think you need that much of them in the frame. You can get the idea by having a hint of them coming in from the side. It would also be nice if you got some light on the seating area in the far side of the restaurant, the pool table is getting lots of window light, but the rest of the space is much darker. Keep in mind that people's eyes are generally drawn to the brightest part of an image, so ideally that bright part will draw the viewer's eye through the space. If the bright part is in the foreground, then your image will have less depth.

Thank you. I was really there to test out my new wide angle lens but I understand your point.
