What XVI Is

XVI is a private, chef driven fine dining experience built for Christian singles who are ready for something real. No apps. No algorithms. No small talk across a crowded room.

16 Seats. 1 Table.
No Swipes.

A curated evening of hospitality, chemistry, and conversation, done with purpose. For faith minded men and women who are tired of endless scrolling and ready for real conversation, real character, and real connection in a setting worthy of it.

From Wendell, Connection Curator

We really need each other! But.. we're not coming together as needed. So much of Jesus' ministry was done in the context of hospitality. We wanted to create an inviting space for Christian Singles to connect without the confusion/potential stigma associated with men approaching women at church, small groups, etc. We've created an exclusive, cool, fun, relaxed, dare I say "flirtatious", experience specifically for that purpose. Most don't want to leave, and are anxious to reconnect with those they made a connection with. It's safe, but make no mistake... It's a vibe!!
