Good to know before you book

When does the outdoor season run?

Usually April through October. Later than that, plan on a tent and dress warm.

Can you do a graduation party in Iuka?

Yes. Graduation weekends fill up early, so book as soon as you have the date.

Is a city backyard big enough?

If a grill and a picnic table fit, it's big enough. Level ground or concrete about ten by ten is the whole requirement.

How do I pay?

Zelle for the $50 deposit, due 72 hours before the party, and it comes off the bill. Cash or Zelle for the rest on the day. No cards.

How long does the whole thing take?

Figure an hour and a half on the grill. Setup happens before you eat, and the chef wipes down the cooking spot before leaving.

What can people order?

Pick from chicken, steak, shrimp, scallops, salmon or vegetable tofu. Want filet? Add $5. Lobster tail? Add $10.
