Marconi's Chef - Introducing Michael Hart
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

Originally from New York, Michael Hart began his culinary career at Maison Robert Restaurant in Boston under the tutelage of Master Chef, Jacky Robert.  After a year and a half of apprenticeship, Michael embarked on a culinary journey that ultimately landed him in San Francisco.  For seven years he once again teamed with Chef Jacky Robert as his Sous Chef at the esteemed Ernie's Restaurant, with an occasional sojourn to Maxims in Paris for a French update.

Michael moved on to an Executive Chef position at The Donatello Restaurant.  During this four-year period, Michael spent a month out of each year at various restaurants in Italy.

He later brought his skills to the local Marin County restaurant in San Rafael, Salute Ristorante, and to his own establishment in the Sonoma Valley Wine Country.

Chef Michael's background and skills complement Marconi's goal of utilizing the incredible array of local food products:  fish, cheeses, fruits and vegetables, lamb, beef and wines.  His appreciation and connection with the North Bay is obvious from the fine dining options he presents to our guests.
