For four years now we have partnered with the best KC restaurants and most talented local chefs. Inspired by our mission, they have opened their kitchen, to create heartfelt, intimate, and memorable dishes. We have grown a community of foodies that flourished through these dinners, and it has been our honor to share these meals with you all.

Interested in sponsoring an Ugly Dinner?
As an Ugly Dinner Partner, you’ll take center stage hosting one of our dinners at a beloved Kansas City restaurant. It’s a profound way to celebrate community and help shape a more inclusive, sustainable food future.
