01

Raw Bar, To Go

A shucker, a mountain of ice, and oysters at your event. The showpiece that runs itself.

02

Private Dinners

Buy out the room for a seated dinner — a set menu built around the season and your table.

03

Catering

Tinned-fish spreads, caviar service, and coastal plates for gatherings of any size.

Catering Menu

Bring Umbo to you

Passed and stationed menus for a casual room, or plated and coursed family style to spark conversation. Mostly priced per person, and every package is a starting point we can tailor to your event.

Menu Selections

Build your courses

The lists your dining-style package draws from. Tell us what you are after and we will shape it around the season and your guests.
