About the Chefs
Chef Brendan Wakeham
Chef Brendan Wakeham (Executive Chef) is the driving culinary voice at Grezi. His passion for cuisine was born out of creating and cooking dishes in the home kitchen with his dad. This marked his path to culinary school at Le Cordon Bleau. After helming kitchens in Boston and Rosemary Beach, Florida, he is happy to return to family roots in Buffalo. When he’s not on the line at Grezi, you’ll find him savoring time with his wife, Emily, and son, Oliver.
Chef Jonathan Freer

After honing his palate in numerous kitchens both here and in the Florida panhandle, he is excited to create innovative dishes for family, friends, and guests at Grezi. Happy to return to Buffalo roots, he shares a home with his wife Esme and their boxer pup, Tina.
