Marc Vetri is the chef and founder of Philadelphia’s critically acclaimed Vetri Cucina.
A Philadelphia native, Marc opened the storied restaurant in 1998 with his business partner, Jeff Benjamin. Within two years of Vetri Cucina’s debut, Marc was named one of Food & Wine's “Best New Chefs” and received the Philadelphia Inquirer's highest restaurant rating. In 2005, Marc received the James Beard Award for "Best Chef Mid-Atlantic."
Following years of accolades at Vetri Cucina, Marc and Jeff opened Osteria, Amis, Pizzeria Vetri, Lo Spiedo and Alla Spina, all of which played integral roles in Philadelphia’s restaurant resurgence.
In 2015, Urban Outfitters Inc., a leading lifestyle retail company, joined forces with several of The Vetri Family restaurants. After overseeing a successful transition, Marc decided to rededicate himself to pushing culinary boundaries at Vetri Cucina.
Vetri Cucina received renewed acclaim in 2017, maintaining its esteemed “Four Bell” rating with the Philadelphia Inquirer andearning a spot on AAA’s exclusive list of Five Diamond Restaurants.
In February of 2020 Marc opened a pasta bar called Fiorella located in the Italian Market of Philadelphia. This intimate restaurant has a short menu focusing on pasta with a variety of cocktails and wines on the beverage menu. In July of the same year, he opened Osteria Fiorella located in Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa in Las Vegas. This restaurant was originally intended to be a pop-up but it was so successful that it was made into a permanent fixture. This restaurant focuses on a variety of classics perfected by Marc while living and cooking throughout Italy.
Marc’s latest venture is an Italian steakhouse in Bryn Mawr called Fiore Rosso. This unique restaurant located in the suburbs of Philadelphia features only the freshest cuts of meat and an extensive beverage program.
