About Us

Quality Uncompromised 

Since we opened the first Dishes in 1998, our passion has been to share our love of great food, creatively conceived and meticulously prepared from the freshest, seasonal market ingredients available. You'll notice the difference even before you take your first bite – Dishes’ food is fresh, wholesome and inviting.

Dishes’ menus are driven by our constant curiosity to explore new recipes and flavor combinations. Some are inspired by international favorites, regional ingredients and local specialties. Others are inspired by what's in season or simply by our restless imagination. Either way, you'll always have an endless variety of unique flavors from which to choose. That's one reason we continually (some would say obsessively) seek out new recipes, ingredients and flavors.

All of Dishes’ recipes are prepared to order from scratch in our own kitchens. We use the finest, hand-selected ingredients available - local heirloom tomatoes, greenmarket herbs, extra-virgin olive oil and prime meats - without compromise and without ever substituting inferior products. Many of our ingredients, such as our fresh-roasted coffee beans, are produced according to our own specifications.

Sure, it takes more time and effort to prepare your food the “Dishes” way, but for us, there is no other way. We believe our customers deserve the best and can appreciate the difference. That's why, with each and every order, you'll have the same great experience and know you can trust the quality and consistency of our food.

We promise you and your guests nothing but the best. That is our mission, our passion, and our commitment.

Thank you,
