Main Course-Summer kick offf

Main Course at The Garden: A Summer Dinner Party

Join us for an unforgettable evening in the garden as we welcome the season of sun-drenched days and late, glowing nights. Main Course is not your typical night out—it’s a slow, thoughtful dinner party designed for those who crave connection, conversation, and really good food.

Chef Marley from Full Plate will be serving a perfectly curated 5-course seasonal menu that celebrates the beginning of summer—fresh, light, and bright dishes that let the season speak for itself.

Here’s what to expect:

• Arrive early for cocktail hour in the garden, where you’ll be greeted with a complimentary drink and a moment to settle in
• A beautifully set communal table
• Thoughtful conversation with like-minded guests who are here for more than just a meal
• A guided experience through five seasonal courses, each one intentionally paced and prepared

Wine Note: This is a BYO dinner—we encourage you to bring a bottle you love. Not sure what to pair? Our friends at Ritual Wines will have a curated selection ready for pick-up ahead of the evening.

Dinner in the garden is something different. It’s slower. More intentional. It’s the kind of night that lingers with you long after the candles burn out.
