danny’s bio
A Long Island native, Chef Grant honed his craft in classic Chicago kitchens and Europe before stepping out to open RIA, where he became the youngest US chef to earn two Michelin stars. In 2015, he channeled that momentum into redefining the American Steakhouse over the wood fires of Maple & Ash. Today, he leads a powerhouse, multi-city portfolio loaded with hotspots in Chicago, Scottsdale, Santa Barbara, Dallas, Miami and Boston.
