About the Chef: Tonas owner and Executive Chef, Tony Chen, grew up in Ogden, Utah. Chen moved to San Francisco to pursue his career after college. There, Chen worked as a designer in an architectural firm and kept a part time position in a Japanese restaurant. While gaining knowledge in the architectural field, Chen found his true desire was still in cooking. The idea of owning his own restaurant one day had always been in his mind since his teenage years. San Francisco is a cultural melting pot. While living in San Francisco, Chen was exposed to ethnic cuisines from around the globe. The unique taste of different ethnic food inspired Chen to incorporate those ingredients and spices into his Japanese dishes, which later became his cooking style. In his dishes, guests will find ingredients like extra virgin olive oil, Thai chili, jalapeno, truffle salts, micro farmed greens, beets&.Chens architectural background defines the way he constructs and balance the taste of his dishes through layers and textures. After moved back to his hometown Ogden, Chen opened Tona with his wife Tina Yu in March 2004. The name Tona is a combination of both Tony and Tina. Chens creative cooking style soon drew local attention. Chen is a believer of local sourcing. He understands the contributions local farmers have for the community. He uses seasonal ingredients in his dishes whenever possible. Chen also supports sustainable fishing. He maintains a positive and responsible attitude toward sustainability, not just in fish but also ingredients he uses in all his dishes.

Guests love coming back for more and often find new dishes being introduced here at Tona.
