About Us
Dancing Marlin offers the area's first wine on tap program, innovative drinks and cocktails and a menu crafted by a Michelin star chef.
Dancing Marlin offers innovative, responsible, sustainable food with a purpose.
24 taps behind the bar - with great wine and cocktails filtering through the lines. A chef's table that seats 16 only a few feet away from the kitchen. A staff that has serious knowledge and passion for food and drink. An inviting environment surrounded by tables, floors and fixtures that are re-claimed or re-purposed.
We try to be as sustainable as we possibly can, responsibly sourcing our food with consideration of farming practices and attempting to purchase locally. We want to emphasize "farm-to-table" food quality. We are about small plates and sharing.
