Michael Tuohy has sold Woodfire Grill and new owners Nicolas Quinones and Bernard Moussa take over ownership today. Tuohy’s chef de cuisine, Kevin Gillespie, will serve as the iconoclastic restaurant’s chef, and the farm-to-table vision Tuohy has been so lauded for, as well as the restaurant’s name, will remain intact. Quinones and Moussa worked together for four years at Loca Luna as manager and assistant manager.

Tuohy’s last day at the restaurant before leaving for his homestate of California will be August 12.

Kevin Gillespie is a wonderful chef and Woodfire is lucky to be able to retain him as he adhears to the values and vision created by Michael Tuohy, served under Michael’s watchful eye, and was handpicked by Michael to continue this vision of sustainable, farm to table dining.
