how It works

SecretEATS underground dining experiences are for the hungry and the curious.

We work with top chefs and rising culinary talent, giving them full control of the menu to serve up the dishes they really want to make. We partner with unique and unexpected locations where the views are as delicious as the food. We also keep all these details secret until the moment guests arrive.  

Because we believe a little surprise is a good thing.
