VISION | QUALITY | SERVICE
Our hors d’oeuvres menu takes classic Pacific Northwest ingredients and elevates them into visually stunning, flavor-forward bites. We source locally whenever possible, using the region’s seafood, seasonal herbs, and farm-fresh produce to craft small plates that are creative, unique, and deeply rooted in our local food culture.
Presentation is an essential part of the experience. Each hors d’oeuvre is thoughtfully styled to complement your celebration—sleek, elegant, and designed to delight. With striking displays and beautifully crafted bites, we bring the spirit of the Northwest to your reception in the most delicious way.
