Santi in New York City, helmed by renowned Chef Michael White, brings fine Italian dining to Midtown East on Madison Ave. Drawing inspiration from his culinary experiences in Italy and France, Chef White presents a pan-Italian menu at Santi, emphasizing simple yet sophisticated dishes.

Culinary titan Chef Michael White boasts an impressive resume with six Michelin stars, multiple James Beard nominations, and a James Beard Best New Restaurant in America Award. Co-owner Bruce Bronster, with expertise in the restaurant industry, collaborates closely with Chef White to ensure Santi's excellence in infrastructure, management, and design.

The restaurant's name, Santi, pays homage to Chef White's mentor, Gianluigi Morini, who equated the hands of chefs to the hands of saints. This philosophy of culinary reverence is reflected in Santi's menu offerings, which include lunch, dinner, dessert, and cocktails, promising a memorable dining experience in the heart of Midtown East.
