Chef Luca Marini composes each plate as a dialogue between tradition and discovery — produce sourced daily from Hudson Valley farms, proteins from artisanal purveyors, finished with classical French technique.
Explore the menuBorn in Milan, trained in Lyon, shaped by a decade in New York kitchens. Luca believes that true luxury is restraint — allowing singular ingredients to speak without interruption.

The Chef’s Vision
I cook to create a moment of silence in a very loud city. When a guest pauses mid-conversation because the first bite demands their full attention — that is success.
Trained at Paul Bocuse Institute, Lyon. Stages at El Celler de Can Roca, Noma, and Le Bernardin. Three Michelin stars across two continents. Named Food & Wine Best New Chef 2019. James Beard Outstanding Chef 2024.
