The new role will move McQuaid away from Cala, the award-winning restaurant in the Senna House in Scottsdale, where he served as the executive chef.
It also reunites MacMillan and McQuaid, who had worked together to open Cala.
The pair also worked together in Las Vegas at Money, Baby! and at Elements at Sanctuary Camelback Mountain.
