About the Business

Death & Taxes takes its name from the history of our beautifully restored early 20th-century building, formerly a funeral home, and later, a bank. The cuisine also draws from dual sources of inspiration: Chef Ashley Christensen's deep respect for the regional traditions and expertise of pitmasters throughout the South, as well as her experiences studying open-fire cooking traditions around the world. Rooted in these smoked and charred flavors, Death & Taxes presents a modern perspective on wood-fire cooking that spans from dry aged cuts of meat and roasted oysters, to handmade pastas topped with smoked sauce and even grilled vegetable vinaigrettes.

Established in 2015.

Specialties

Comfortable, yet elegant, the ambiance evokes the feeling of a special occasion, without being so precious as to shun a spontaneous date night. For those seeking a show with their meal, there's no better seat than the kitchen counter, with front row views into the open kitchen. Serious wine lovers will also appreciate our onsite cellar (housed in the former bank vault!), offering hundreds of new and old world pours, as well as vintage depth.
