Georgetown's Executive Chef Gregg Korney
July 20, 2020

As a young high school graduate, Gregg Korney did not yet know his passion was being a chef. While he started cooking at a local Italian restaurant when he was 13, after grade school he decided to attend Jacksonville University, earning a degree in Business and Marketing. However, as he continued to cook his way through college to support himself, he realized he had a real knack for it. Years later, after working at Cleveland area staples like Giovanniโ€™s, Sushi Rock, Vue, Velocity American Bistro, and even opening his own restaurant, Quince, Gregg had established himself as an Ohio culinary veteran. Then in 2012, Mickey Krivosh, owner of Lakewoodโ€™s casual pub, Around the Corner, offered Gregg the Executive Chef position at his fine dining restaurant, Georgetown. Being at the end of the lease on Quinceโ€™s space, Gregg decided to take the plunge. Eight years later, heโ€™s glad he did. A mutual friend introduced the two, and as Gregg puts it, โ€œWe talked, and it just seemed like a good fit. We met, and the rest is history.โ€
