“Consistently evolving our menu at DJT, our summer additions extend our locally-sourced, farm-to-table program and introduce more of an Italian influence, which is one of my favorite cuisines,” said Executive Chef Sydney Jones. “We’re incorporating more Italian vinegars and oils, Italian wines, Focaccia breads and scratch pastas. Visitors will see even more of these Italian cooking techniques infused into new items as we move into fall.”

The special prix-fixe menu changes weekly each Tuesday.
