PASEO ARTS DISTRICT
We are all humankind serving humankind.
HumanKind Hospitality was born in the heart of the Historic Paseo Arts District in December of 2009, with the opening of Picasso Cafe and The Other Room bar, by Shaun Fiaccone and Kim Dansereau. Since that time we have grown into a hospitality company serving thousands of guests each week, at our restaurants, all situated on Paseo St., in Oklahoma City, OK. Our concepts include Picasso Cafe, The Other Room bar, OSO Paseo, FRIDA Southwest, and the daley. We thrive by investing in our people, our spaces, and the culture that drives us – the practiced belief: “We are All HumanKind Serving Humankind”.
More than a group of innovative hospitality concepts, we are a family of restaurants. We pride ourselves in forging strong, personal relationships with the people who serve and the people we serve. Our family works together every day to elevate ourselves and each other; creating thriving relationships and environments. Friendly faces and welcoming spaces.

Meet the leaders
Shaun Fiaccone
FOUNDER & PRESIDENT, HUMANKIND HOSPITALITY SERVICES
Shaun has worked in restaurants since he was 16. After graduating from the University of Oklahoma with a degree in psychology he realized that his true passion was hospitality.
He worked his way up from kitchen staff and waiting tables at Oklahoma City institutions Applewood’s, The Ranch Steakhouse and Deep Fork Grill to participate in Kurt Fleischfresser’s esteemed chef apprenticeship program. At age 26, Shaun got his feet wet as a restaurant owner when he bought into cafe NOVA. It was there that he met HumanKind Hospitality partner Kim Dansereau, and the two opened their first restaurant, Picasso Café, in December 2009.
Shaun is proud of HumanKind’s incredibly inclusive environment, one which is centered on being a familial community hub versus just another restaurant group. As a leader, his strengths lie in business and concept development. He’s known for his decentralized management style and finding the right talent for the right roles.
Shaun and his wife Emily live in Nichols Hills with their children, Scout and Charlotte, and Goldendoodle, Ralphie.
