Products & Services

- Dish-n-Dash: For an additional charge, our staff will prepare your dishes for you – you just pick `em out and pick `em up.
- Private Parties: Invite your friends to a party where they’ll have fun AND get something done. It’s a guilt-free evening out. Let’s Dish! also accommodates group events at our store. We work with all different types of organizations and can customize a Let’s Dish! session for your next event.
