Rocky Top Hospitality

Rocky Top Hospitality has been devoted to improving Raleigh, North Carolina’s local dining scene since 1998, when its first restaurant opened. Michael Dean’s Wood Oven and Seafood Grill was the culmination of years of planning. After working in restaurant management in Raleigh area chains, he lit the fire in Michael Dean’s wood oven with the help of some friends and investors. Six other restaurants have now sprung from that flame: Michael Dean’s, Bogart’s American Grill, Twisted Fork, HI5 Sports Restaurant, Red Room and The Mash House. New restaurants are always built from the menu-out, so the emphasis is always on the food and how to create an experience you can’t find anywhere else. Dean knows that there will always be people who are tired of “eating in chains,” and has been working his apron off trying to liberate them.

Dean's philosophy has always been that it’s more fun to introduce a whole new concept to the area rather than simply open another location, so chances are, when you hear about a new Rocky Top Hospitality restaurant, it will be just that.
