FAQ

Do I need to provide my own kitchen equipment for a private dinner?

For full-service events, our team typically utilizes your home kitchen for cooking, final plating, and service. We will leave your space better than when we arrived. During our initial consultation, we will discuss your kitchen layout to ensure we bring any additional specialized equipment needed to execute your menu flawlessly. We can makeshift kitchens on-site for outdoor events with a white tent, portable ovens, burners, and tables. We ask for you to provide an electrical outlet for us to plug into and access to water.

How far in advance should I book my private party?

Because we prioritize quality and intentionality for every event, our calendar for weekend dates and holiday seasons fills up quickly. We recommend reaching out at least 4–8 weeks in advance for smaller gatherings, and 3–6 months for larger social galas.

Can we customize the menu for a themed celebration?

Absolutely. We love collaborating with hosts to ensure the menu reflects the spirit of the occasion. Whether you are looking for a vibrant "Spanish & Mexican Flare" night or a delicate garden brunch, our chefs specialize in creating curated menus that align with your vision.

How do you handle dietary restrictions for private guests?

Inclusivity is a core part of our hospitality. We can easily designate dishes as vegan, gluten-free, or nut-free. Simply provide us with your guests' specific requirements during the planning phase, and we will ensure every guest has an exceptional dining experience.

Can you provide staff for just bartending?

Yes. Our MAST-certified bartenders can be added to any private event. We provide the professional service, mixers, and garnishes, while you provide the alcohol. This ensures a safe and polished beverage experience for your guests.

Do you provide tables, linens, or chairs?

While we focus primarily on the culinary and service aspects of your party, we are happy to coordinate rentals on your behalf through our preferred vendors. From fine china to boutique linens, we can help ensure the tabletop aesthetic matches the quality of the food.
