Our Story

Southern food, remembered.

By the Grace of Grits is more than catering — it's a bridge between generations, culture, and creativity. Every plate carries a story of heritage, hospitality, and soul.

Meet the Chef

Hospitality is her love language.

Chef Alexis built By the Grace of Grits on a simple belief — that Southern food should be remembered, not just eaten. Rooted in Gullah Geechee heritage and family tradition, every menu is a story told through seasonal ingredients, soulful technique, and intentional detail.

From intimate private dinners to full-scale celebrations, she leads each experience personally — cooking fresh on-site and pouring grace into every plate.
