Executive Assistant

RDG Overview:

Envisioned by Marine and Greg Galy through their travels, experiences, and thirst for discovery and adventures, the first MILA restaurant (part of RDG) opened in Miami Beach, FL, in January 2020. MILA is a restaurant, rooftop lounge, and mixology bar aiming to transport guests on a culinary journey of flavorful MediterrAsian cuisine. Balancing genuine hospitality, fine dining, and refined nightlife, MILA has quickly established itself as the go-to destination in the upscale Miami social scene.

We are first and foremost a group of individuals who strive for excellence and seek to illuminate the senses. We believe in the rhythms of life and we are driven by the experience of adventure. Our principles stand for giving our customers the most transporting experience, an organic design and a refined culinary journey.
