Russ Bendel’s popular OC coastal restaurants, Vine, Sapphire, Ironwood and Olea, are offering a Thanksgiving Family Meal Box that provides everything but the turkey!

Guests are encouraged to preorder by calling their restaurant of choice. Meal boxes are available for pickup Thanksgiving morning between 9-11 a.m. Simple reheating instructions and containers are provided. Modifications are politely declined.
Several fine dining restaurants have picked up on the trend of families preparing their own turkey, then ordering the sides from culinary pros, eliminating the shopping, stress and time needed to prepare an assortment of dishes.
