The following are our current dinner, dessert, and reception menus. Executive Chef Branden Levine has created these menus to feature only the best seasonal specialties. If there is something you would like and you do not see it featured, please do not hesitate to ask.

To best accommodate large dinner parties, we ask that you select no more than three entrées, and provide us with your guests' entrée selections one week in advance. If you would rather not worry about your guests' selections in advance, surf and turf will generally satisfy all of your guests. Our chef will happily provide you with several menu options.
