His journey led him to work at several distinguished restaurants.

He then honed his skills at Mi Tocaya Antojeria, a celebrated Mexican eatery in Logan Square, and explored Modern American cuisine at North Pond, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Lincoln Park.

Relocating to Charleston, he continued his culinary journey by joining Xiao Bao Biscuit as a sous chef. Later, he had the privilege of working alongside the talented team at The Obstinate Daughter, under the guidance of Executive Chef Jacque Larson.

:a small group of people with shared interests or tastes

The word “coterie," in its essence, means a group of people who come together to share their ideas. Unique perspectives are what brings flavor to our conversations and our relationships, and they thrive in the right environment.

Our style is an edited mix of flavorful dishes and drinks served in an intimate setting. Flavors come to the forefront as easily as the conversations held by the people enjoying the food. At Coterie, everyone brings their own story to the table. We welcome yours.
