Chef and owner, Cyrus

Douglas Keane

Born in Detroit, planted in Sonoma. Doug brought his midwest work ethic to San Francisco back in 1998. Along the way, he stopped at Cornell University for a degree in Hotel Management and in New York City where he earned his self-described “master’s degree” cooking in some of the finest restaurants in the world.

A few years after landing in San Francisco he moved north to Sonoma County and quickly realized he had found his new home. He describes Sonoma County as the best place in the world to live and work. He values the honor of taking arguably the world’s greatest agricultural products, grown right here in Sonoma, and transforming them into a thoughtful meal to be enjoyed by his guests. He is eternally grateful for the deep support of the Cyrus investors who saw through the darkness of a worldwide pandemic and chose to support an ambitious project.
