Jeff is the fun in this funhouse and the Jimminy to our Pinnochio. When he is not pestering the heck out of Dan, he can be found shedding his blood, sweat, and tears for Jackson and doting on his wife and college sweetheart, Debbie, and twin daughters.
Tanya is the Chief Operations Officer for BRAVO! (and Broad Street and Sal & Mookie's). She is responsible for all three of the restaurants, in all aspects. From front-house management support and guidance to employee training and development systems, to customer engagement and satisfaction, promotion, special events, and more, Tanya is truly the head of the business, working directly with Jeff pushing each restaurant and its team members to the highest levels of "Get to Yes", and "Do the Right Thing" behaviors. Tanya has been with the company for just under two decades.
Originally from Miami, Mike made Jackson his home after graduating from Jackson State University. He has a huge heart that he gives unconditionally, which helps him succeed everyday when it comes to pleasing guests at Broad Street because everything he does day in and day out is genuine.
Born and raised in Central Mississippi, Katie has been in the restaurant industry since she was old enough to work. She has worked nearly every possible position in a restaurant from tableside wine service to line cook to cashier, and everything in between. Now as Broad Street's Service Manager, she relishes the opportunity to learn something new every day from guests and co-workers alike. Passion, hard work, and a thirst for knowledge are what drives her.
A veteran of the restaurant business, Aven oversees the Mangia Bene Catering operations for BRAVO!, Broad Street, and Sal & Mookie's from ordering, to production, to completion of events. He has catered everything from intimate brunches, to black tie affairs for 3500, to a seated luncheon for 1200 in honor of the President of the United States. His Delta roots and desire for culinary perfection drives him to make each event unique and exciting for his clients. When he is not catering, you can find him enjoying time with his wife and two beautiful children or somewhere playing his guitar.
Jaime started with Broad Street as a front house manager before becoming our Mangia Bene Catering Coordinator. She absolutely loves talking to guests one-on-one to plan the perfect event for them. Food is her passion, and she loves working with our chefs to come up with new and exciting menus. Nothing is more exciting for her than seeing her client's vision for their party become reality.
