Italian-Inspired Menus with a Modern Twist
Our Philadelphia rehearsal dinner packages go beyond basic drinks and bites. We offer buffet-style entrees that encourage mingling while still delivering a satisfying, full meal. Signature à la carte selections include Italian crudo (sashimi-style dishes), grilled octopus, pan-seared branzino, and prime NY steak. For larger gatherings, popular options include braised beef short ribs, gnocchi gorgonzola, herb-crusted mahi, and chicken al limone.
A Curated Bar Experience
To complement the food, we offer a carefully curated wine list, featuring top Italian selections as well as favorites from the U.S., France, Spain, Argentina, and New Zealand. Our skilled mixologists also craft organic cocktails using seasonal ingredients. Standouts include the Artemisia (organic vodka, tarragon, lemon), Tango Dress (Pinot Noir Cava, Solerno, blood orange foam), and Amanacer, a refreshing blend of raspberries and hibiscus syrup.
