A Culinary Triumph: Allendale Social
Allendale Social is making waves on the Bergen dining scene, celebrating its first anniversary under the leadership of owner Daniel Grey and Michelin-starred Executive Chef Joey Sergentakis and general manager James Mazzuto all with a wealth of expertise.
Chef Sergentakis brings an extraordinary culinary pedigree to Allendale Social. Inspired by his Italian grandmother’s kitchen, his journey began at the age of 15 in New York City’s vibrant food industry. He worked alongside renowned chefs, including Daniel Boulud, Philippe Rochat, and Alain Ducasse, and Gray Kunz refining his skills and developing a signature style that balances diverse global flavors.
During his tenure as Chef de Cuisine at Café Gray Deluxe in Hong Kong’s Upper House hotel, Sergentakis helped the restaurant earn a Michelin star. His expertise in harmonizing complex Asian flavors and European techniques established him as a culinary force.
“I couldn’t be more thrilled to bring my international culinary journey back to New Jersey and turn Allendale Social into a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts,” says Chef Sergentakis.
“Allendale Social provides exceptional cuisine, impeccable service, and an elegant yet approachable dining experience,” says Daniel Grey. “Our commitment to quality and creativity shines through in every dish.”
