private tasting info
YOU ASKED. WE ANSWERED.
We host private tastings at our facilities in the Virginia Beach Oceanfront area and can schedule them on weekends, evenings, or during lunchtime – whatever works best for you. They typically last 1-2 hours.
As many as you want! However, we recommend up to 4 people to make sure your preferences are honored and receive the highest priority. Otherwise, your private tasting may turn into a Thanksgiving-with-entire-family occasion.
Prior to booking our services for your event, private tastings are $55/person or $195 for 4 people, with $50 per each participant over 4 people. Should you choose to proceed with our catering services after sampling our food, the fee for your private tasting will be credited towards the total catering balance for your event.
You bet! Your private tasting is complimentary with our catering service. It is your opportunity to sample the custom menu you've chosen for your celebration and make any adjustments if desired.
