Our Heritage

Inspired by the Aegean Coast

Chef John Fraser transports diners from Manhattan to the picturesque coastlines of Greece and Turkey. Drawing upon his own heritage and deep admiration for the region, IRIS offers an innovative culinary journey celebrating ancient spices, wild oregano, pristine whole seafood, and cold-pressed olive oils.

"At IRIS, we celebrate what makes the Aegean Sea so enduring — the ingredients, warmth, and hospitality that have captivated travelers for centuries."
