Readers’ Choice Diamond Award Winner for Most Golds Won 

For Mike Kavros, the leap into the hospitality sector has been both challenging and deeply rewarding. “When I hear a customer say, ‘Wow, you built all this from the ground up?’ there is tremendous pride and a sense of accomplishment to humbly answer ‘yes.’” 

“Thank you for recognizing our hard work and commitment to excellence,” Mike noted, feeling grateful for winning Gold in so many categories. This acknowledgment fuels the drive to continue excelling and innovating. 

Starting a multi-tiered business from scratch in an entirely new industry was a significant risk.

Yet, it’s an accomplishment that Mike is most proud of. “Something in my head said ‘go for it,’ and I’m very proud of the progress we’ve made. We’re trending in the right direction!” 

Advising a younger self, Mike emphasizes the importance of thorough research and understanding the job market. Reflecting on the journey,he identifies a core value: being goal-oriented and not accepting failure. What sets Callie Opie’s apart is the warm, sincere welcome guests feel. This genuine hospitality, coupled with a dedicated, familiar staff, leaves a lasting impression.
