Events & Experiences Manager

Acqua Bistecca is a restaurant where wood-fired steaks and pristine local seafood take center stage, all through the lens of refined Italian influence.

The menu reflects a balance of land and sea—’ACQUA’ and ‘BISTECCA’—celebrating the bounty of the mid-Atlantic and the warmth of the grill.

From simply grilled local Chesapeake tile Fish to delicately charred steak brushed in red Lambrusco butter, each dish is rooted in tradition yet reimagined with elevated, modern touches.   About the Role At Mina Group, we believe that a restaurant is more than a place to dine — it’s a stage for unforgettable experiences.

The Restaurant Events & Experiences Manager plays a critical role in bringing that vision to life.

Working closely with the General Manager and the Revenue & Relevance team, this leader ensures our dining rooms are filled with the right guests, the right energy, and the right experiences to maximize both visibility and profitability .

This is a dynamic, cross-functional role that requires equal parts strategy, stamina, and floor presence.
