Job Description

The face of the company...literally. As the greeting guru, your bite sized interaction with customers is the fuse that will make their meal the bomb. Get your walk-and-talk on before seating them, whip out some menus and make a face that says ""we got you,"" even on the nights you don't. A mind for Tetris is a plus, because some nights the whole town wants a seat.

About Mia's Italian Kitchen

Mia’s Italian Kitchen: Old Town, Alexandria, Virginia. The building that presently sits at 100 King Street began its life as the Corn Exchange building in 1871. On corner of King and Union Streets in Old Town, Alexandria, Mia’s is truly situated on “Main and Main.” Mia's Italian Kitchen is rooted in family. The inspiration came Dave’s unique relationship with his great-grandmother – originally from Naples, Italy, she didn't speak a word of English, so they communicated through food. Arriving in the U.S. via boat in 1904 at the age of 20, Filomena Galeazzo Masucci settled in Rochester with her husband and had 7 children. One of her boys, ’Uncle Pete,’ went on to buy a 75-acre farm on the hills above Canandaigua Lake in the late 1940’s. Filomena moved with Pete & his wife in to their 105-year old farmhouse, and so begins the story of Dave’s experience with Italian farm-to-table home cooking. The menu at Mia’s was a collaboration between Corporate Executive Chef Graham Duncan and Partner Dave Nicholas to capture the essence of his great-grandmother’s rustic Italian cooking. She used easy, simple, raw ingredients - an approach that Mia's embraces in our menu.
