Full Time

Senior F&B Manager

The Place
Nestled in the heart of SoHo at The Mercer, Sartiano’s combines Italian heritage and
fare with a modern fine dining experience.
Sartiano’s was created by prominent lifestyle architect, Scott Sartiano, with culinary
direction from three-time James Beard award winner Chef Alfred Portale.

The Cuisine:
Alfred Portale will lead the culinary direction as the Chef managing Partner. The
uniquely crafted menu hones in on a specialty to set the tone for the fine dining
experience. Building off the foundation of offering specialized meats, Sartiano’s
establishes itself as an authentic Italian restaurant.
The Executive Chef:
Chef Chris Lewnes, a Brooklyn-born Italian American, grew up surrounded by the
flavors and aromas of Italian American cuisine in central New Jersey. After attending
Rutgers University and earning a degree in journalism, Chris decided to embrace his
love for cooking and pursue a career in the culinary arts.
As fate would have it, Chris was approached by Chef Alfred Portale with the exact
opportunity he had been waiting for: the position of Executive Chef at Scott Sartiano's
namesake restaurant, Sartiano’s in The Mercer Hotel. Chris is excited to work alongside
Chef Portale, a pioneer of New American cuisine, in a legendary location, and finally get
the chance to share his love for Italian American cuisine in New York.
