DINNER PRIX FIXE: Three Course Menu - $69.00

Guests dining at Castle Hill will have the opportunity to enjoy three new prix fixe menus: the Three-course Menu, Five-course Tasting Menu and Seven-course Degustation Menu.

Castle Hill’s award-winning culinary team including Executive Chef Jonathan Cambra, under the direction of Corporate Chef Casey Riley, have prepared menus featuring the best in local and organic produce, fresh seafood, and prime cuts of meat. Prix Fixe menus are available during dinner only and a traditional menu is still available for lunch.

The genesis of moving to Prix Fixe menus stems from a careful evaluation of how to advance Castle Hill’s already highly-awarded culinary program to the next level of excellence. Castle Hill’s culinary team has a singular goal, to create the most elegant and innovative dining experience anywhere. Moving away from our traditional menus to the prix fixe options is a way to elevate the overall culinary experience of our guests who have come to expect the best while dining at Castle Hill.
