CulinArt is a specialty-niche provider that brings memorable experiences to active resident communities through delicious dishes and incredible service. Our highly trained chefs are passionate about cultivating masterpiece dishes to delight and satisfy residents. Whether residents need fuel to tackle the back nine or a refreshing meal after finishing laps in the pool, CulinArt’s menus are diverse and spot-on. The rising senior generation has high expectations for their communities regarding menus and offerings. Rest assured that keeping menus exciting is no challenge for us. To mitigate menu fatigue and increase variety, CulinArt follows a few key principles. We shorten menu rotations so new offerings are more common. We focus on seasonal menus to break up monotony. Our culinary R&D team pilots limited-time offerings (LTOs). And, most importantly, we involve residents in menu development. Our food-first philosophy combines fresh, regionally sourced ingredients with on-trend menus based on the unique demographics of each community we serve.
Ingrained into your culture, CulinArt’s extensive experience and ability to provide elite hospitality and delectable meals takes community living to the next level.

Our food-first and hospitality-driven approach is customized for each community, creating a program that elevates engagement and delivers moments beyond your expectations. Backed by the largest food and hospitality company in the world, CulinArt brings unparalleled support and resources to redefine mealtimes. We believe in the power of hospitality and model our guest services program after the Disney Institute, knowing that delivering exceptional customer service is all in the details. Our trained service experts maintain our core pillars and fervent focus on hospitality and are dedicated to front-of-house guest engagement. Personalized service by our waitstaff makes residents truly feel like the restaurant is their home away from home.
At CulinArt, our primary goal is community engagement, keeping the dining experience fresh and on-trend while creating excitement and boosting participation. Our approach focuses on the unique culture of each community we serve, aligning with missions, values and objectives. Understanding the specific needs, tastes and wants of residents is essential to cultivating an engaging dining program. We work tirelessly to create new and innovative ways to make connections and help strengthen communities. We plan resident functions and special meals, promote culinary trends, celebrate holidays and fun food days, honor diversity through menu planning and authentic recipe preparation, and create an active dining events calendar. Our goal is to maximize participation by providing residents with what they want, when they want it and where they want it. Naturally, we encourage our teams to have fun and immerse themselves in festivities. We generate a consistent buzz from the first meal served and remain dedicated to elevating experiences.
CulinArt understands the importance of nourishing the body and mind. We promote healthier choices, emphasizing quality ingredients and wholesome, naturally flavorful foods prepared with healthful cooking techniques. Our recipes are always prepared from scratch, with minimal use of frozen ingredients. We create balanced menus that present options for all lifestyles, dietary preferences and restrictions. We incorporate seasonality into our menu planning and understand the relationship between culinary and wellness. At the same time, we believe that education is key to solidifying a healthier lifestyle. Our team of registered dietitians works with the communities in which we serve and offers educational presentations, such as tabling events, cooking demos and lunch-and-learns. We aim to increase awareness of current health trends and timely nutrition topics, all with the ultimate goal of increasing resident engagement in health and wellness initiatives.
CulinArt sees delicious food as a catalyst for change and use our menus to influence guests to make positive choices for their health and the planet. We believe in plant-forward eating and we emphasize the sustainable and wellness benefits of plant-based foods while highlighting the incredible taste of plant-forward recipes. We have always prioritized supporting local American family farms. Our chefs choose local produce as a first choice and can identify upon ordering what their options are for local purchases. We share this commitment with our guests through our everyday Eat Local campaign, which focuses on serving local produce in our dining rooms and telling the story of our food.
