The Dinner Table at The Butcher's Daughter (Venice)

​You don't need to know anyone to have the best night out this month.

​Join 15-20 guests at The Butcher's Daughter on Abbot Kinney for a plant-forward dinner party served family-style — seasonal, organic, made-from-scratch dishes in one of LA's most beloved neighborhood spots. Our hosts guide light conversation prompts and rotate seats between courses, so by dessert, you've connected with nearly everyone in the room.

​"Last night's event was AWESOME! I've been to a few events like this, but this was, far and away, the best group of people I've ever experienced. The vibes were great — it felt welcoming and warm." — LA Guest

• ​Mix & Mingle Session — Meet the rest of the group in the first 30 minutes before dinner starts
• ​Seat rotations — Switch tables between courses to meet more people
• ​Conversation prompts — Light, optional prompts to spark real talk
• ​Intimate group size — 15-20 guests, not 50+
• ​Abbot Kinney icon — A plant-forward cult favorite that's "more than a café — it's a lifestyle"

​The Butcher's Daughter is a vegetable slaughterhouse — a restaurant that treats vegetables as a butcher would meat: chopping, trimming, and carving fresh, seasonal produce into beautiful dishes. Their Venice location on Abbot Kinney has earned cult status for its organic, plant-forward menu, California-bright interiors, and cocktails that rival any bar in the neighborhood. Whether you're fully plant-based or just appreciate great food, this is a room worth being in.

​This is our second time hosting at The Butcher's Daughter — and we're excited to be back.

• ​You're new to LA (or just want to expand your circle)
