Menu
Our menu changes regularly to showcase the freshest seasonal ingredients, so this is a sample of what you can expect. When you join us, you may discover a few different dishes—something we hope adds to the experience.
We invite you to take a journey through the menu, just as Chef Chris intended. Begin with a shared appetizer, explore our house-made pastas and signature entrées, and save room for dessert. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted to be enjoyed together, creating a memorable dining experience from start to finish.
For guests with dietary preferences, gluten-free pasta substitutions are available for select pasta dishes. If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please let your server know—we're always happy to accommodate whenever possible.
