Stefano Secchi is the chef and partner of Michelin-Starred Rezdôra, a rustic Italian restaurant highlighting the cuisine of Emilia Romagna in New York City’s Flatiron neighborhood. Brought up in a home with a strong sense of Sardinian heritage, Stefano has dedicated his career to the craft of Italian cooking. He spent several years honing his skills in Modena at the famed Osteria Francescana under Massimo Bottura and perfecting the art of handmade pasta under the tutelage of Nonna Laura Morandi at Hosteria Giusti and in Piemonte, just outside of the white truffle region of Alba, working with Michelin-starred chef Davide Palluda at All’Enoteca.
Since Rezdôra’s opening in 2019, Stefano has led the team, to a three-star New York Times review from restaurant critic Pete Wells, earned a 2021 and 2022 Michelin star, named one of the 100 Best Restaurants in New York City by the New York Times, and travelled to Milan to receive recognition as the #9 Italian restaurant in the world by Top 50 Italy.
