Seats must be reserved through OpenTable and are priced at $600 pp, which will include award-winning wine pairings from around the world, with an option to add on the $400 Chef’s Section featuring caviar, a glass of 2009 Cheval Blanc, and exclusive wines from the Chef and Wine Director’s personal cellar. All of the proceeds will benefit the Anhelo Restaurant Scholarship Foundation.
