“I’m focused on bringing people together through extraordinary food and unforgettable experiences.” - Danny

We Love What we Do.

We don’t just hand over a playbook and walk away; we get in the trenches with you whether we own, license or consult. We take concepts from a napkin sketch to a living, breathing room of guests who never want to leave.
Have Danny as your personal chef for the night as we transport a full, multi-sensory restaurant experience to your event. As in-person activations return to the forefront of brand strategy, we provide our partners with a sophisticated vehicle to captivate audiences and stand apart though unforgettable moments.
If we attach the Granted name to a product or piece of gear, it’s because it’s something we genuinely obsess over.

Let's Get to Work.
