A Southern’s Journey through the Mediterranean

Reservations
Reservations available from 5:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. Events are held in the Commodity Council Room, 154 Eckles Hall.

Our menu transports diners on a journey through the Mediterranean with a unique Southern flair. Stops include Italy, Greece and Morocco, highlighting the flavors of each region, to create an inspired dining experience. The Mediterranean is known for its abundant use of herbs, spices, various soft cheeses, seafood and lamb. Those familiar with Southern fare know of its comforting qualities that feed the body and the soul. Our menu fuses these two influences together, bringing new, palate-pleasing concepts right here to the heart of Missouri.
