In The Kitchen is also a private dining salon where the cuisine and ambiance reflect our personal aesthetic and dedicated relationships with local farmers. Dining In The Kitchen is a completely unique experience.

An intimate and elegant table for up to 12 guests is set with one of a kind place settings, linens and an eclectic mix of silverware, glassware, candlelight and seasonal flower arrangements. There is an organic beauty to both the service and cooking with our guests seated within direct view of our open kitchen. You will have the opportunity to watch and learn as your meal is cooked and plated before your eyes.

Each dinner is individually crafted, letting the bounty of the season shine. The chefs are happy to create special menus based on guest’s dietary preferences or reason for gathering; birthday, anniversary, graduation etc.
