The ONE Group and STK Miami are pleased to announce the appointment of Ralph Pagano as the new Chef de Cuisine at the Miami Beach restaurant. Pagano is no stranger to the public eye outside of the kitchen. He has successfully gone to hell and back with Gordon Ramsay on FOX’s “Hell’s Kitchen” and the epic Battle Barramundi versus Bobby Flay on Food Network’s “Iron Chef America.” National appearances on “Good Morning America,” “Good Day LA,” “The Today Show” and “The Early Show” round out Pagano’s morning television resume. Ralph is proud to be part the local Miami food scene, helping fortify South Florida’s place in the culinary world.
Continuing the success of the culinary hotspot, Pagano will add his own signature touches to the already delicious menu consisting of signature dishes Lil Big Macs, Parmesan Truffle French Fries, Shrimp Rice Krispies and of course a variety of steak cuts.
The STK Miami location boasts a spacious DJ lounge, second level V.I.P. bar and bistro dining area. The sun-bleached palette responds to its inviting yet stylish environment with a soft, relaxed and more muted combination of natural materials and colors. Nude tones with natural gray suede and sophisticated white leather banquettes adorn the dining areas. A catwalk across the back bar delivers a distinctive vibe as the guests ascend to the mezzanine level of the restaurant. A glazed screen spans the double height space of the main atrium with an abstract shape of a woman’s body reflecting off the glass. Upstairs, a second dining room, bar and private dining areas flank the railings overlooking the main area allowing guests to be the center of attention or blend in with the Miami social scene.
STK Miami is located at 2377 Collins Avenue at The Gansevoort Miami Beach Hotel. For reservations please call 305.604.6988. To book private events or group dining in any of the private rooms including Blaze Starr, contact Danielle Brown at 305.604.6816 or visit www.stkhouse.com.
