Iron Gate Restaurant

🇺🇸Happy Fourth of July!

We're thrilled to participate in this year's Lamb Jam Restaurant Month! Hosted by the American Lamb Board, Lamb Jam Restaurant Month is an epic dining experience that brings together the most talented chefs to celebrate family operated farms and ranches raising sheep in the U.S.

Chef James Collura has devised a braised lamb pappardelle with braised lamb shoulder, wilted baby kale, hand cut pappardelle, Sicilian pistachio and nasturtium. Try this exquisite dish for yourself, snap a picture, and vote for James via the link below!

Join us on May 9th for a night of fine Grecian wines as we host Emmanuela Paterianakis from Domaine Paterianakis! Emmanuela is the third generation in her family to make wines from her family vineyards in Crete, Greece. These bright, clean wines have been favorites at Iron Gate for a long time, often being featured at special events held in our space, and truly speak to the unique flavors of the Greek Islands.

We are excited to have Emmanuela join us for a four-course meal paired with her traditional, authentically Greek wines. Join us to hear more about her family's story and how they produce such beautiful, location-specific wines! Tickets available via the link in our bio!
