Oxtails & Cocktails: Second Edition

Oxtails & Cocktails is a five-course Oxtail Omakase that brings together bold Caribbean flavors, heartfelt storytelling, and thoughtfully crafted cocktails.

At the center of the experience is Trinidadian Chef Osei "Picky" Blackett, also known as Mr. Everything Oxtail and owner of UMI GOODS, who tells his story through oxtail—from the memories and traditions of growing up in Trinidad to the people, places, and culinary experiences that have shaped him throughout his career. Each course reflects his journey, paying homage to one of the Caribbean’s most beloved ingredients while showcasing it with creativity, technique, and a deep respect for its roots.

Alongside the culinary experience is a cocktail program by Haitian mixologist Ritzy Rodriguez, who brings more than 10 years of hospitality experience and uses culture, technique, and storytelling to create cocktails inspired by the rich traditions of the Caribbean diaspora. Together, Oxtail & Cocktails is an invitation to slow down, share a table, and experience the Caribbean through the stories, flavors, and traditions.

🍽️ We have two seatings available on Monday August 24th; 5:30pm and 8pm.

Pickled Paradise
Bombay Sapphire Gin • Dry Vermouth • Fino Sherry • Saline
A Caribbean twist on the classic Dirty Martini. Clean, savory, and beautifully crisp, served with a house-pickled okra that's meant to be enjoyed between sips for the perfect balance of brine and botanicals. Finished with a fresh lemon mist.

Sunstone
Blanco Tequila • Luxardo Bitter Bianco • St-Germain • Grapefruit • Blood Orange • Sage Honey

Soft Landing
Chairman's Reserve Rum • Ten To One White Rum • St-Germain • Coconut Water • Lime • Sage Honey

Cooling cucumber and fragrant basil meet fresh lime and coconut water in this crisp zero-proof pour. Sparkling water keeps it bright, clean, and perfect alongside the food. Finished with a fresh cucumber ribbon and basil.
