The Live Love Las Cruces Dinner Club is an easy way to get out, try a great local spot, and sit down with people who also love this city and doing fun things.
The groups are small, the restaurants are local, and the energy is relaxed. It's just a yummy meal with good conversation and new friends.
How it works: Take our quiz and we'll match you with five people who either mirror your energy or totally flip your perspective (you pick).
The fun: Your restaurant stays under wraps until that morning.
After Dinner: Halfway through dinner, we'll text everyone a spot nearby to keep vibes going if you want. You can decide.
Here's the deal: Take the Quiz and signup. You handle your own check, while we orchestrate the rest.
Next Dinner Club is Thursday, March 19th at 6:00 PM, and last time to signup is Tuesday March 17th 6 pm.
Plus Ones are here!
This is the one I’ve gotten the most questions about. You can now bring a friend or partner to Dinner Club. Here’s how it works:
Complete the questionnaire as usual.
At the top right, you’ll see the option to add a +1.
Fill out their details and pay for both seats together.
You’ll be seated with your plus one.
