Meet Noah Frese
Executive Chef, Siro's and Noah's Italian
A second-generation chef from Albany, New York, Noah Frese discovered his passion for cooking at the age of 12. After high school, he moved to Manhattan to pursue his culinary dreams, putting himself through The International Culinary Center, where he trained in classic French cuisine. Noah honed his craft under the guidance of Master Chef Daniel Boulud before heading to Charlotte, North Carolina, where he became Head Chef at Barcelona Wine Bar and mastered the art of tapas-style dining.
Upon returning to New York, Noah served as Executive Sous Chef at 677 Prime before bringing his talent and vision to The Roosevelt Room, where he introduced a fresh take on fine dining in the Capital Region. During his first year, he won the Rising Star Chef Competition and took first place at the 2023 Albany Boys & Girls Club Great Futures Gala.
In 2024, Noah joined the team at Siro's in Saratoga Springs, where his leadership helped deliver one of the most successful seasons to date. As a result of that success, Siro's owner Peter Spitalny and Chef Noah are set to open a new concept-Noah's Italian-slated to launch in downtown Saratoga Springs in the summer of 2025.
