We are passionate about Italian food and committed to high standards of quality in its delivery to our guests. We always act "guest first" in a service environment where guests win the "moments of truth." We believe that "pride in appearance, with a strong emphasis on visual appeal" applied to our food, people and facilities affects the way each guest perceives us. We believe in being active contributors to the betterment of our communities and the quality of life in our neighborhoods. We are committed to building a professionally managed organization - the D'Amico famiglia - staffed by a diverse group of individuals working as a team managing from a set of long term plans and short term objectives. We believe that the competency, skill and attitude of the entire D'Amico famiglia is the primary driver of our success and are committed to providing continuous, effective training, coaching and tools to increase performance and achieve results. We strive to be a quality training/learning organization. We are committed to ensuring that members of the D'Amico famiglia understand what is expected of them and for what they are held accountable. We believe in positive reinforcement and recognize that good performance should be rewarded and celebrated on a regular basis. We are committed to providing a work environment that is conducive to a balanced quality of life. We believe that ours should be a great place to work…a place where enjoying one's work and getting results happen at the same time…a place where the D'Amico famiglia has fun on its journey. We expect each member of the D'Amico famiglia to be trustworthy and to treat others with dignity and respect. Inappropriate behaviors will never be tolerated. We believe in credibility and leadership by example, that management should be role models for our values and culture. We live our values and "walk the talk." We believe that an entrepreneurial spirit and strong work ethic are required to fuel our journey. We believe in a sense of urgency and in continually seeking creative and innovative ways to increase performance and do things better. We believe that maintaining a "top line/sales" focus is the best path to maximize our long term profitability and success.
