A Menu Made for You

Make It Your Kind of Evening

Choose familiar favorites or plan a more formal dinner. These ideas are a starting point; your final menu and quote are tailored to your gathering.

Italian Favorites

Start with tomato basil bruschetta, enjoy a fresh Caesar salad and creamy chicken Alfredo or beef Bolognese, and finish with tiramisu.

Signature Dinner

Pair garlic & herb tri-tip and Marry Me Chicken with stuffed mushrooms, creamy mashed potatoes, and roasted seasonal vegetables.

A Special Celebration

Build a custom dinner around filet mignon or garlic & herb salmon, your preferred sides, and a sweet finish such as cheesecake or mini cannoli.

Your Preferences

Dietary Needs & Finishing Touches

Tell us about dietary restrictions when you inquire so we can discuss suitable menu adjustments. Ask about desserts and beverage arrangements, and let us know if you plan to provide a celebration cake.

Before We Arrive

Plan the Details Together

Share your date, location, guest count, and available kitchen facilities. We will confirm cooking space, equipment, service style, timing, and any staffing needs before booking. Private dinners receive their own quote rather than the catering menu’s 50-person package pricing.

Tell us your date, location, estimated guest count, and the kind of event you are planning.

Step 2

Choose the Menu

Step 3

We finalize service style, timing, setup, venue requirements, and other important logistics.

Step 4

Enjoy the Event

Our team prepares and serves the meal so you can focus on your guests and your celebration.

Menu Tastings
