We’re incredibly passionate about sourcing our food locally. Great food comes from great ingredients!
While we source certain specialty items (WINES) from small, local vendors whom we have relationships with in Italy, we strive to source as many fresh ingredients as possible from West Michigan.
We cook with what's fresh and in season, particularly from farms just outside of Grand Rapids! We're situated in an amazing location on Alpine in Comstock Park, where we're luck enough to have some of the Midwest's most fertile agricultural soils just to the West of us.
Below is a sampling of some of the amazing farms and vendors whom we work with.
