After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America, Sobel went to work in Las Vegas, where he opened Bradley Ogden before moving to Guy Savoy as Chef de Cuisine. Washington, D.C. soon beckoned where he was Executive Chef at Michael Mina’s Bourbon Steak, earning the restaurant a coveted 3-star review from The Washington Post.

Prior to opening Cal Mare, he was Executive Chef at San Francisco’s RN74 and in 2014, served as guest judge on Food Network’s Chopped. That same year, RN74 earned a rare 3-1/2 star review in the San Francisco Chronicle.
