Our Story
Chef Michael's Bio
Chef
Not everyone can handle the pressure and intensity of a high-end kitchen. Michael Mastrantuono, on the other hand, thrives on it. He was very quick to adopt the restaurant lifestyle due to running around and cooking within his family owned restaurants at a very young age. By 20, Mastrantuono held his first head chef position at Indulge in Latham, followed by the family-owned Milestone restaurant in Glenmont, before moving on to MezzaNotte and Roux by age 23.
The 27-year-old executive chef swiftly moved up the ladder in the states capital region. In early 2017 he was recognized in FSR Magazine’s “40 Under 40: Restaurant Stars on the Rise.”
Since joining the 15 Church team in July 2017, he “seriously impressed” Susie Davidson Powell of the Times Union, which earned him a 4 Star food review. These days Mastrantuono focuses that intensity on sourcing the best possible ingredients. He not only respects his craft but also respects his food, what it eats, where it's grown, and what it's grown in.
