Dos Tres was conceptualized by owner Marco Britti, who brings years of experience in creating successful restaurant concepts in New York City including Calle Dao and Mareluna. Marco moved to New York City from Puglia, Italy, in 1996 to pursue a music career as a drummer. His big break came when he partnered up with a fellow musician who was a bass player for Marc Anthony. His music career took off and he went on a South American tour with Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez. While touring, he loved how so many people came together through music and also food. Marco decided to move back to the United States, and shortly after, his Cuban-Chinese restaurant Calle Dao was born. He also owns two Italian restaurants called Mareluna, serving a modern take on Italian food and now with the help of Executive Chef Henry Zamora will be bringing Dos Tres to life on 23rd Street in Chelsea.
