Gianni Chiodi Jr.

Gianni began his stellar career at Crystal Springs Resort in April 2012 as a busser in the Crystal Tavern. Through his commitment and dedication, he was quickly rewarded with additional roles and was provided the opportunity to move up to Restaurant Latour. He held every position in the Front of the House before being promoted to Restaurant Manager in 2019, a position he has held with much success as repeat guests and others have been captivated with his knowledge and hospitable personality.
