James Beard Award Winning Chef Kevin Nashan isn’t from St. Louis but after working at some of the best restaurants around the world, this is the city he chose to plant roots and open his restaurants.
He took over Sidney Street Café in 2003 and incorporated his vision into the beloved Benton park restaurant. Now it’s synonymous with special occasions and considered one of the best restaurants in town. He opened Peacemaker down the street in 2014 with a different vibe and very different menu.
Now he continues to grow his concept, partnering with 4 Hands Brewing and expanding to other states. Kevin Nashan shares his journey from a teenager working in his family’s restaurant to becoming a mentor to chefs in St. Louis.
