## The Team

### Jacob Harth | Chef-Owner

Chef Jacob Harth grew up on a Southern Oregon farm in a restaurant family, where his father hunted, fished, and foraged, and his grandmother owned a restaurant. Early memories of oysters sizzling on the barbecue sparked his passion for seafood and sustainable sourcing.

After training in Portland, Jacob opened Erizo in 2019, earning recognition as one of Eater's Best New Restaurants in America. At Bistro Lagniappe, he brings fine dining precision and rustic French technique to Sonoma County's seasonal ingredients.

### Eric Mercer | General Manager
