🗓JUNE RESERVATIONS ARE OPEN🗓

We did a thing!

OFF EDGE was a menu in 2022 that turned out to be a special one of them all. It was the first menu where EJ created each dish that felt authentically him. He developed that menu without holding back. It still to this day is one of our favorite menu.

Ever since then, we've joked around about my (Hitomi) version of the menu. Calling it OFF TAMMY and even talked about the dishes would be on the menu if we ever did it. I never thought I would be brave enough....until this year!

Through the end of June, we're running our current menu 40WADA-- a menu that celebrates women, immigrants, mothers, and of course ♉️.

Reservations are now open on Tock!

📢📢SQUAD NIGHT DINNERS ARE BACK📢📢

We're excited to announce that we're bringing SQUAD NIGHT DINNERS back and will be inviting our friends to serve up a collaborative menu for you all again!

We're kicking it off with ....... Chef Gizela Ho! After leaving Rich Table as CDC, she's working on opening her own restaurant called Good Morning 96.

"There’s something surreal about watching someone you came up with grow into the force she is today."

More than a decade ago, Gizela and EJ met behind the line at Rich Table — long nights, shared grind, the place and time that shaped both of them. To find each other here now, doing their own thing and collaborating together after all these years, feels truly full circle.

EJ watched her evolve into a chef with her own voice, her own fire, her own vision. He couldn’t be prouder of who she’s become, and he couldn’t be more excited for what they’re about to create together.

We'll be hosting her from June 5th through June 8th and reservations will open tomorrow, May 13th at noon on Tock!

We hope to see you there✌🏼✌🏼

👀Our next menu....👀

Pasalubong is a beloved Filippino tradition of bringing home gifts and treats from one’s travels — a way of sharing memories✨️, flavors👅, and love🫶🏼 with family and friends. Omiyage holds a similar spirit in Japanese culture: thoughtfully chosen souvenirs💭, often edible😋, beautifully packaged to show care and gratitude🎁.

After our travels through the Philippines and Japan, we'll be sharing this special menu as our pasalubong and omiyage to you — a collection of dishes inspired by the people, places, and tastes that welcomed us abroad. Each plate is our way of bringing those stories home and saying, thank you for being part of our journey🙇🏽‍♂️🙇🏻‍♀️

This menu will start March 14th and the reservation through the end of March will open tomorrow February 7th at noon!
