Seasoned Executive Chef Lance Repp is bringing his original recipes to Curbside Eatery and Drinkery, cultivating a menu of honest flavors, fresh components and upscale American fare. Previously the creative mind behind the University Club atop Symphony Towers, Chef Repp brings culinary experience gathered from the age of fifteen to his food, bringing life to local and seasonal ingredients.

Curbside Eatery & Drinkery will specialize in signature twists on classic libations ranging from mojitos and sangrias to champagne drinks and unique wines. Local craft beer will also be available on tap with Happy Hour specials offered throughout the week at this local watering hole.

Their innovative menu will use local ingredients to create Fresh Ahi Tuna Poke, Short Rib Nachos, Corn Bread Calamari and Chicken Tomahawks for starters along with innovative salads, such as their BLAT Salad with arugula, crispy bacon, tomato, avocado, grilled sourdough and a light tomato vinaigrette.
