Fine dining in Lafayete, Indiana near Purdue University catering for weddings and graduation in the grater lafayette Indiana area

1997, Maize Co-owners Christie and Brannon Soileau brought fine dining to Lafayette Indiana in the form of traditional American cuisine with international eclectic flare.  Both owners are also managing partners and chefs at each of their fine restaurants. 

Fresh fish is flown in from the coast, baked goods are prepared in house, and all sauces and dressings are hand crafted for exquisite taste and presentation.  Special produce, meats, and cheeses are reserved for Maize chefs only by a handful of distributors and weaved into the delicately crafted entrees.

Maize has hosted numerous wine dinners and beer fests, as well as state and local dinners and charity events.  The food and service has received national recognition.  Check out Maize News for more information on upcoming events.
