About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Good for special occasions
  • Romantic
years, Food Dance has built strong relationships with dozens of local and regional growers, producers and farmers who have helped craft a one-of-a-kind menu that is fresh, inventive and appeals to the senses. Through our commitment to building a thriving and sustainable local food system, we create casual and inviting opportunities for people to come together and connect through the experience of food.
Food Dance is dedicated to relationships that support artisans who practice craft food processes that have been around for generations—growing, raising, preserving, curing, aging, pickling, butchering and more.

We look forward to sharing great experiences with you; celebrating, meeting or just enjoying one of our fabulous cocktails inspired by the seasons. Join us for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Don't miss our little specialty Market where you can take home some Food Dance!

    Our server overheard we wanted a booth. The hostess told us we could not have it, our server made it happen which made our dining experience much more comfortable. The noise level on a Saturday night was very loud. If you were going in for a quiet dinner, this is not the place. The food was good and overall we had a very pleasant experience. The cheese fondue is the bomb! :D YUM!

    Everything was very delicious. Butternut squash/Apple bisque was like fall in a bowl. Really yummy. Flank steak was great, so was Mac n cheese and the rice tots.

    I love this restaurant but I was a little disappointed this time. The menu is great, but smaller that it has been in the past. They were out of several item, which was disappointing. I will go ahead, and hope this isn’t a trend.
