ABOUT CHEF MATTHEW DOLAN
Chef Matthew Dolan received his formal training at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York and credits his work alongside professionals who honored the craft - including many "salty old European chefs" that ran well organized and disciplined kitchens - as providing him with the fundamentals he needed to excel. From New Orleans, New York City, Nantucket Island, and Helsinki, Finland, he has strived to improve his technique while being exposed to a variety of restaurant environments. Dolan became part of the San Francisco dining scene with a successful run as executive chef at Garibaldi's on Presidio. At Twenty Five Lusk, Dolan realized his dream of building his own kitchen, where he continues to deliver inspired cuisine that demonstrates his passion and commitment to excellence. He is a member of the US State Department’s American Chef Corps, has been featured at the prestigious James Beard House on three occasions, earned a coveted Michelin Star, authored the fish cookbook “Simply Fish”, and continues to make numerous television and radio appearances here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Dolan is delighted to apply his culinary artistry towards a "Game of Thrones" inspired dinner!
Located in the bourgeoning China Basin neighborhood of San Francisco's SOMA district, 25 Lusk is a modern restaurant and lounge featuring seasonally driven New American cuisine, a dynamic wine program, and expertly crafted cocktails. Award winning architect Cass Calder Smith won top honors for his multi-million dollar design that weaves a modern aesthetic through a historic brick and timber warehouse originally built in 1917 as a meatpacking and smokehouse facility. All of the original exposed brick and massive timbers are still in place, creating a warm and inviting ambiance while maintaining the building's classic, industrial aesthetic. Perhaps the most unique element of the 25 Lusk transformations is the open space from the main dining level to the lounge below. This design unifies the two-level space while still allowing each level to exist as a distinct venue. Our "Taste of Thrones" Pop-Up Bar & Dinner Series will be taking over 25 Lusk's one-of-a-kind basement level bar and lounge called the "Social".
