Dinner

Here we call it "supper".

After a busy day, sit down to a dinner that reinvigorates and refreshes your guests. We bring fresh, sustainable and inspired meals to every plate, no matter what. Our energetic and detailed staff – from kitchen to tableside – work seamlessly together, so dinner is the star of your show.

Our plated dinners are served with a side of rolls and butter, and fresh brewed Starbucks coffee and tea/herbal tea. Just choose a soup or salad an entrée, and dessert!
