"We're having a boy," Colicchio told People, adding a name has also already been chosen for the baby, who is due in early August.
"We're keeping it under wraps. Our parents don't know the name yet."
Colicchio -- who has a 16-year-old son from a previous relationship -- added that there's no pressure on his kids to follow in dad's culinary footsteps.
"He could do whatever!" he told People. "[Both sons] can do whatever they'd like to do as long as they're happy."
It's been a good week for Colicchio, as Top Chef received two Emmy award nominations earlier this week.
Colicchio personally received a nod along with Padma Lakshmi in the Outstanding Host For A Reality Or Reality-Competition Program category -- a surprising nomination considering his Top Chef role is billed as lead judge and mentor, not as a "co-host."
Regardless, Colicchio is still excited about the recognition.
"It feels great!" he told People.
