General Manager, El Gaucho Seattle

Jeffrey Young takes the reins of El Gaucho’s Seattle flagship after twelve years with Fire & Vine™ Hospitality, earning the nickname the octopus along the way for his knack of doing seemingly everything on the floor at once. His path started as a busser at Red Robin and carried him through the private dining department at Salty’s on Alki before he joined the Fire & Vine™ family. That front of house instinct has only grown sharper since, and along the way he’s picked up an education in the back of the house too: recipes, cost-saving techniques, and kitchen know-how he never expected to learn.

A Seattle native, Jeffrey grew up in the Mt. Baker neighborhood and is the oldest of three, with two younger sisters. He is married with three daughters and two dogs, and he and his wife are devoted tennis players. Off the clock, he’s usually deep into a crime novel, revisiting a cult classic from the 90s, or playing synth-pop in the background. His approach to the job hasn’t changed since day one: live up to the expectations of the company and the colleagues who built it, learning something new and teaching something in return, every day. As Jeffrey puts it, having friends is the key to life.

Executive Chef, El Gaucho Seattle

Chef Joe Satterwhite, known as “Chef Joe” in the kitchen, is a culinary professional whose passion for cooking and dedication to his craft have led him on an inspiring journey in the culinary world. Born and raised in Tampa, Florida, he was introduced to the art of cooking at a young age by his father, and his mother’s culinary talents further fueled his love for food.

In 2011, he graduated from culinary arts school and started his journey as a line cook at Joeys Southcenter, climbing the ranks to become the sous chef. In 2021, he joined AQUA as the sous chef and in 2023 became executive chef. In 2025, he moved to sister property El Gaucho Seattle as Executive Chef.

Music is his therapy, and his motto is, “Let’s make today better than yesterday.” With a love for both cooking and music, and his full name proudly displayed on his chef coat, Chef Joe Satterwhite continues to make his mark in the culinary realm, inspiring others with his passion, talent, and unwavering commitment to turning ordinary meals into extraordinary experiences.
