Michael Fuller
Executive Chef, Owner
Chef / Owner Michael Fuller’s culinary adventure began 35 years ago on Hilton Head Island, SC. He apprenticed under spirited Swiss Chef George Wierman, learning the basics and gaining an appreciation for acute details. Fuller’s eagerness to learn and grow then took him to Culinary school at Johnson and Wales in Charleston SC. While attending school he was asked to join the opening team of the now renowned Magnolia’s under Chef Donald Barickman. Barickman’s advanced approach to culinary and management techniques opened up an entirely different world and instilled a life long appreciation for Upscale Southern Cuisine. Fuller then moved to Atlanta in advance of the Olympics and achieved his first Executive Chef position at Beesley’s of Buckhead. His career took off from there working in some of the highest acclaimed restaurant groups in the city. He gained a deep appreciation and expertise working in steakhouses like McKendrick’s, Del Frisco’s and Ray’s Restaurants.
Fuller’s belief that the modern American Steakhouse is the current Fine dining platform led him to the opening of Mac’s Chophouse on the Marietta Square. His relationship with founders Randy & Kelly McCray came organically and developed naturally through a shared passion for elevated food and service.
Fuller is a long time resident of East Cobb with son Michael, now a college student in West Virginia. He is a dedicated father who enjoys time spent watching his son on the baseball field, volunteering with Share Our Strength, American Foundation of Suicide Prevention and the Giving Kitchen.

He spent two decades at Ray's On the River, where he steadily climbed his way up the ranks, learning the art of hospitality management along the way. After working closely with Chef Mike Fuller, it was an easy choice to make the move to the new Mac's Chophouse restaurant on the Marietta Square.

At Mac's, Phillip enjoys the family atmosphere that's built with the team and the guests who visit frequently.
