Some chefs collect accolades. Matt Migliore collects moments worth remembering.
A seasoned chef with more than a decade of experience in the New York City restaurant industry, Matt has built his reputation on a simple principle: food doesn't need to be fussy to be unforgettable. It just has to hit.
In 2015, Chef Matt helmed the kitchen as Chef de Cuisine at Llama Inn and then expanded into Japanese Cuisine at Morimoto. These aren't just resume lines — they're proof of his ability to master diverse culinary traditions while maintaining his own distinctive voice.
The television wins speak for themselves. Matt is known for winning the Food Network's Chopped, and appeared on Beat Bobby Flay where he was brought in to create a globally inspired dish fit for victory. But what makes Matt different isn't just his competitive edge — it's his philosophy that good food doesn't need a suit and tie.
After years in the restaurant world's high-pressure kitchens, Matt pivoted to something more personal: The Chef Matt Experience. He brings restaurant-level dining to private spaces, offering "good food, no ego. Just solid flavors, a laid-back vibe, and an experience you'll actually remember."
Chef Matt is also known for his lime pie — the kind of signature dish that becomes legend among those who've tasted it. His approach balances restaurant technique with comfort food sensibility, creating dishes that feel both elevated and approachable.
Matt claims to have been "bringing his culinary expertise to outlets like NBC and Business Insider", positioning himself as more than just a chef — he's a culinary voice worth listening to.
What sets Matt apart in the crowded private dining space is his "no-fuss, all-flavor" ethos. He's the kind of chef who understands that the best meals aren't just about technique, but about creating experiences that bring people together around the table.
