Our Chef's Table is The Alcove's most close-knit dining experience. Guests gather around a large U-shaped communal table facing the front of the room, sharing the evening course by course while our culinary team presents a five-course tasting menu alongside wines hand-selected from Foley Family Wines.
With only 18 seats available each evening, the Chef's Table is designed around atmosphere and detail — every course is served as crafted, every wine is introduced and poured in sequence, and the night unfolds at the rhythm of the room. Tickets for these dinners historically move quickly, so early reservations are strongly encouraged.
