Chef Ali Monge

Chef Monge’s extensive skills blending international flavors and methodologies has won the hearts of our discerning and guests. His passion for incorporating an endless array of fresh, local seafood into The Dining Room’s nightly menu is unsurpassed. Chef Monge’s diverse culinary background and uncompromising creativity have ensured that our world-renowned restaurant is more popular than ever.

Chef Monge has an impressive history of culinary achievement, cultivated across premier resorts and restaurants that span the globe. Graduating from the University of South Carolina as a certified chef, Monge kickstarted his career as lead cook at various fine dining restaurants where he crafted Southern Cuisine with French techniques before refining his skills at notable venues like Washington D.C.’s exclusive Four Seasons – the only Five-star, Five-diamond hotel in the nation’s capital – and the highly-acclaimed two Michelin star-rated MiniBar by José Andrés where he combined Spanish cuisine with molecular gastronomy.

Chef Monge most recently held positions as executive chef and head chef in both Central Restaurante in Lima Peru – an establishment that holds the coveted placement of number one restaurant on Forbes’ 50 World’s Best Restaurants list – and El Cielo in Miami, a one Michelin star-rated restaurant, where he showcased his extensive expertise in Latin American cuisine. Now, Monge comes to Little Palm Island from Grupo RoasNegra, a leading hospitality group in Mexico, where he provided culinary guidance and support for the diverse portfolio of restaurants and bars. Outside of his culinary passion, Monge enjoys athletics, fishing and music.
