POV: you’re joining us for Waite & Sea 🔥

Small room, hyper-local ingredients, a little chaos and a lot of creativity… all make for quite a special experience that changes and evolves with every dinner.

Waite & Sea is part tasting menu, part experiment, full-on Davin Waite energy — where sea meets soil and you never know exactly what’s coming next.

We’re seriously stoked for this series, and spots are already starting to sell out. Grab your seats now before they’re all gone!

WAITE & SEA IS BACK AGAIN! 🤘🔥🐟

— June 2, June 16, June 23, June 30 @ 6:30pm —

This intimate dinner experience brings you back to the spirit of early Wrench — a small room, a few curious guests, and the kind of energy that happens when food, storytelling, and community collide.

Part tasting menu, part experimental playground, Waite & Sea is a look into what’s inspiring Davin’s cooking right now: whole-fish utilization, bold creativity, and a deeper connection to the ingredients around us along with what’s being grown just steps away at The Plot Garden Project.

It’s an evolving conversation between sea, soil, and season, and we can’t Waite for you to join us.

Striped bass, mustard greens, garlic chive 🔥
— a little taste of Omakase tonight.

Chef was in the garden earlier, harvesting the greens himself and prepping them over at The Plot, then he walked them across the alley to bring them here. Two sister restaurants, two kitchens, one plate… all working together just the way we like it. And we think you’re going to like it too.

Come get a taste before something with tentacles beats you to it… 🐙 👀
