Private Dining Experiences

Every City Left Its Mark

Chef Steven Ferdinand didn't set out to build a brand. He set out to cook in the places that demanded the most of him.

From the Michelin-starred kitchens of Europe to the relentless pace of New York, the farm-driven philosophy of San Francisco, the spectacle of Las Vegas, and the bold warmth of Miami and Atlanta, every city shaped his palate, his discipline, and his point of view.

On Tour Eats was born from a simple conviction: the best meal you'll ever have shouldn't happen in a restaurant. It should happen at your table, in your space, with the people who matter most to you, designed entirely around you.

Now based in Sarasota, Florida, Chef Steven brings that world-class craft to the Gulf Coast and wherever the next experience calls him.
