We had our rehearsal dinner here and it was fantastic! We did the Italian buffet and even our Italian guests loved it. Paolo and Gio were attentive, communicative, and easy to work with. They did a great job accommodating several allergies, including making the whole meal nut free. The event space is lovely, we only added a few centerpieces with extra wedding flowers, but the room didn’t need any extra decor. We’ll definitely be back to eat at the restaurant and highly recommend for events!

The Butchers & Bakers team did a fantastic job with planning and executing a wedding celebration for about 50 family members and friends.
Our planning process was smooth with the help of Alissa and they were extremely flexible and accommodating both in advance and during the event. The bartender and waitstaff were top notch and friendly.
The private room is spacious and perfect for celebrations and the food was excellent as well. The stuffed sole, eggplant rollatini, apple walnut salad, and carrot cake were some of the crowd favorites. Overall, we had a great time and our guests all agreed!
