chef’s table dinners

The best seat in the house at Corridor is in the kitchen. Gather 8 to 10 of your people, start with a welcome reception in the Market, then settle in at the butcher-block table while Erin and Logan cook a four-course menu planned just for you. Bring your favorite bottles. Stay for the stories.

It's one of Indianapolis's most sought-after tables, and it fills every year.

  • Who: One entry per household. Duplicates are filtered out.

  • The drawing: Each Monday in October, we draw 50 names and reach out by email.

questions about our chef’s table dinners

  • To keep things fair (and fun), every Chef's Table reservation starts with our annual lottery. Entries open in early September and run for about three weeks. Watch this page and our emails for exact dates. One entry per household.

    Each Monday in October, we draw 50 names and reach out by email. If yours is drawn, you'll have until Thursday evening of that week to call and pick your date.

    Pro tip: Fridays and Saturdays go first. If your crew can do a Wednesday or Thursday, your odds of landing your dream date go way up.

    Once every date is claimed, we'll let everyone know the lottery has wrapped for the year. Not drawn? Cancellations pop up throughout the year, and they go first to our waitlist and email subscribers.

  • No shortcuts, friends — these dinners are just too popular! Every reservation starts with our annual lottery, which opens each September right here on this page.

  • The total cost for a Chef's Table dinner is $1,850 per table (plus tax & gratuity). Think of the $250 non-refundable deposit as saving your seat at the table. It applies directly toward your total balance. On the night of your dinner, you’ll simply settle the remaining $1,600.

    Need to split the bill? Easy — we can divide the check among your guests however you’d like at the table.

  • Life happens! If you are unable to keep your reservation date, you are welcome to gift or transfer it to a family member, friend, or colleague. All we ask is that you notify us in advance so we can update our guest records and be fully prepared to welcome them.

  • No — we enforce a strict one-entry-per-household rule. Duplicate entries will be automatically detected and removed, and only your first submission will count toward the drawing.

  • Our butcher-block kitchen table is designed for private groups of 8 to 10 guests. Because of the intimate setup right inside the kitchen, reservations are strictly capped at a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 10 people.

  • We’ll greet your party at the Market when you arrive at 7:00 PM for a quick welcome reception. From there, you’ll head into the kitchen and take your seats right around the butcher-block table. Your chef will cook directly in front of you, guiding you through a custom four-course meal and sharing stories along the way.

    Dinners wrap up around 10:00 PM, after which you're welcome to linger, finish your drinks, and browse the Market before heading home.

  • Absolutely! You are welcome to bring your own wine, beer, or spirits to enjoy throughout the night. Alternatively, you can purchase wine or beer directly from our Market upon arrival. When planning your custom menu with the chef prior to your dinner, you can also ask for recommendations on wine pairings.

  • Don't worry — you won't have to cook! Our chef creates and prepares the entire four-course meal for you.

    Prior to your event, our chef will collaborate with you to craft a personalized menu tailored to your preferences and dietary needs and will send over the final menu a few days before your dinner.

  • Don't lose heart! Cancellations and date shifts pop up throughout the year. If a date opens up, we reach out to our lottery waitlist and email subscribers. We also host public prix-fixe dinners on Second Saturdays and special evening events all year long, so join our email list to stay in the loop for other dining opportunities!

  • Yes! We officially renamed our restaurant and market to Corridor, but we remain the home of Nicole-Taylor’s Pasta and feature fresh pasta in our dishes regularly. When inviting your guests, remind them to look for the Corridor sign on the front of the shop!

  • Corridor Chef’s Table Lottery Rules — No purchase is necessary to win. Must be 21 years of age or older to enter.

The price is $1,850 for the table, and parties must have a minimum of 8 or a maximum of 10 to reserve. Payment can be split by any method at dinner in the evening.

    A $250 non-refundable deposit (toward the $1,850 table price) is required and will be charged at the time of reservation. (You’ll only be charged $1,600 for the table the evening of your reservation.)

    To enter the lottery, the entrant must complete the Chef’s Table Dinner Reservations form. No other options are available. The entry period runs from September 1, 2026, to September 19, 2026.

    Each Monday in October, winners are drawn at random and contacted at the email address provided. Each winner has until Thursday evening of that week to claim the prize by calling Corridor at (317) 257-7374 and setting a date. If not claimed, new winners will be chosen at random.
