Phil Stratigis
Head Bartender, The Vesper
My name is Phil Stratigis DiTramontos. I'm originally from Parsippany, NJ, but moved up to Rochester in 2005 to attend the University of Rochester. There, 2 big surprises happened: I ended up meeting my wife, Victoria, and I got into bartending. After a brief experiment in the desk-job world, I found myself back in the bar and restaurant business, and I haven't looked back since. In my spare time, I make dog treats, cook, play disc golf, and love to tour around the local and regional bar, restaurant, brewery, and distillery scene with my wife.
