A Fine Dining Experience Is Our Mission

The mission of our dining experience is to present meals that are as pleasing to the eyes as they are to the palette, nourishing to the body and spirit, and meant to be enjoyed among friends and neighbors.

Assisted Living Dining Experience

In our assisted living neighborhood, dining is really a “choose your own adventure” experience. Enjoy a meal with friends in the restaurant, or grab a quick bite on the go from the bistro. Happy hours and events find residents breaking bread or pastries in shared spaces throughout the community. Or if you want to enjoy a little peace and quiet, have a chef-prepared meal delivered to your apartment, or cook dishes you enjoy using your personal kitchen. The dining experience is as active or peaceful as you prefer.

Memory Care Dining Experience

Dining in memory care is prepared with a focus on nourishing the body, mind and spirit. For residents on modified diets, extra care has been taken to ensure delicious food can be consumed in a safe and healthy way. Menu items and brain-healthy snacks have been carefully selected with resident wellness in mind.  While all residents are offered the same menu, our chefs ensure all residents are able to experience each dish by using the proper preparation they require while carefully maintaining the integrity and spirit  of each and every meal, and the dignity of each and every resident.
