The owner, Chef Anthony Turchia, grew up in Sunrise, FL and began cooking in high school before attending culinary school. He gained experience at national chains including Cheesecake Factory, Bahama Breeze and P.F. Chang’s, then moved to Destin where he worked in gastropubs and restaurant openings. A single catering gig sparked the idea for his own venture, leading to the creation of Chef Ant's Catering. His flavor philosophy blends deep Italian roots with fresh, local ingredients, often sourced directly from the Gulf. Every menu is made from scratch, customized to guests’ tastes, and designed to feel like home even while on vacation.
