Enjoy a unique culinary experience with your friends, family or coworkers in your home or any other location. We’ve been working on creative and affordable prix fixe menus starting at $35 per person for a minimum eight guests. Add organic sourcing to all ingredients for an additional $8 each. Vegetarian options are also available if you prefer not to celebrate your inner carnivore. 
Organizing a dinner party is easier than you think! We can help with guest lists and RSVPs as well as take simple and secure payments from everyone individually through Google Checkout.
Be on the lookout for upcoming underground dining experiences hosted by Crying Onion around Chicago this summer, featuring locally sourced ingredients from our fabulous city farmers markets!
Thinking about hosting a dinner party? Our newest prix fixe menus are listed below.
