Our Cuisine
Handmade, seasonal, and entirely yours
Italian, Mexican and wine-country cooking from a team of chefs who built their craft in well-known kitchens, served across San Luis Obispo & Santa Barbara counties.
No fixed menu. Only yours.
We do not work from a set list. Every Grapevine menu is built around your event, your guests and the season, then finalized together at a private tasting. The dishes below are a glimpse of what we love to cook, offered to inspire rather than to order from.
Italian
Handmade pastas, antipasti and slow-built sauces in the tradition of a true Italian table.
Mexican
Bright, soulful flavors and from-scratch staples that bring warmth and color to any celebration.
Wine Country
Seasonal, ingredient-driven plates designed to sit beside the Central Coast’s finest pours.
Fresh ingredients, beautifully presented
Everything we serve is made by hand from fresh, seasonal ingredients and plated to impress. From passed appetizers to full plated dinners, the food looks every bit as memorable as it tastes.
