The Robb Report, a 50-year-old “luxury lifestyle” magazine has named one of Colorado’s premiere restaurateurs to its annual list of the 50 most powerful people in fine dining.
Bobby Stuckey, co-founder of the Frasca Hospitality Group, landed at 31 — nine spots ahead of his position at 40 in 2023. He remains the only Colorado-based person on the list and sits alongside titans of the industry, like Nobu Matsuhisa, Wolfgang Puck, Alice Waters, Jose Andres, Grant Achatz, Kristen Kish, Thomas Keller, Eric Ripert and Danny Meyer.
“Since 2004, Bobby Stuckey has been one of the biggest culinary names in Colorado, working with his partner, the chef Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson, to open the Michelin one-star Frasca Food and Wine, Pizzeria Alberico, Tavernetta, and Sunday Vinyl,” the magazine wrote.
“In July, they added Osteria Alberico in the Denver suburb of Englewood, and Frasca celebrated its 20th anniversary in August with a star-studded party. As a master sommelier, Stuckey is also celebrated by oenophiles and founded the wine label Scarpetta Wine,” the Robb Report continued in its write-up. “This winter, he and the Frasca Hospitality Group team will team up with the Four Seasons Vail to open a Tavernetta outpost in the skiing hot spot.”
A statement from Frasca reads: “Bobby is humbled to be included on this list alongside some of the industry’s most acclaimed chefs and operators from coast to coast, including many chefs who have been part of the group’s guest chef series over the years, such as Gregory Gourdet, Nancy Silverton, Val Cantu, Kristen Kish, Michael Tusk and his mentor, Thomas Keller.”
