Chef Herve Cuyeu

Herve Cuyeu - Executive Chef

A native of Bordeaux, France, Herve Cuyeu was always drawn to the unique flavors sizzling within his mother’s kitchen. Growing up near the southern Atlantic coastal seas, he developed a palate for fresh seafood and the precision that comes with preparing such delicate dishes while delivering a well-rounded experience that embraces traditions without compromising modern aspirations.

Chef Cuyeu studied Culinary Arts at the Lycee Hotelier De Bordeaux and was called to the United States with a sense of adventure and curiosity for the country’s wide range of unique geographical and ethnic cuisine.

He has taken on many culinary roles as an Executive Chef including working at a one-star Michelin restaurant at the Waldorf Astoria Chicago and at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel, where he was an integrate part of the success of the very first South Beach Food and Wine Festival. As a culinary leader, Chef Cuyeu mentors, guides and inspires his peers and the next generation of chefs. When he’s not crafting culinary creations at Prado, you may find Chef Cuyeu outdoors either gardening or hiking. Chef Cuyeu says working at the Omni Scottsdale is sentimental to him because its Spanish influence reminds him of his southern French roots.
