Del Rio

• Spain
• Hospitality

• Owner

  • Jan 1985 - Jan 1992

  Owner and operational manager of a 150 seat restaurant in San Diego, CA. Managed a staff of 60 employees with an eclectic menu. Del Rio hosted "Lights out Jazz" entertainment, breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week and various private parties. The challenges of client services, staff management, food and beverage price-points and inventory controls, required daily accountability to maintain a profitable return in the low-margin business of owning a restaurant. I considered my years as a restaurant owner an essential education to being a successful entrepreneur.
