Yes there was, it was called the triclinium. It had three couches that could seat three each. It also had a table in the center that held the food. there was also an opening at one end; so it was aranged in an open square like:
[1] [3]
[1] [ ] [3]
[1] [3]
[2][2][2]
Please for give the crudeness of the model, but ir was one person per block, with the food in the middle, and each number symbolizes a couch.
