Michael Grande

Executive Chef
While many of us were still deciding our career paths, Grande’s started at an early age and his passion for all things culinary evolved into a life-long dream. Grande attended culinary school at Southern New Hampshire University and after completing degrees in Culinary Arts and Hospitality Administration, he started his journey into the hotel world. He has worked in various dynamic cities such as Boston, Washington DC, Scottsdale, and most recently in Sacramento where he was the executive chef for Hyatt Regency Sacramento, where he won several awards for his burger. Grande is also an avid reader, vinyl record collector, travel nomad, and gardener.

“Give my team great fresh local ingredients and let us make them special. Cooking comes from the heart and should be warm and inviting.”
