Elias is the host and manager at Amia. He genuinely enjoys welcoming people and making sure they feel comfortable from the moment they arrive. He cares deeply about the details, because for him, good hospitality is about how guests feel.
When someone leaves with a smile and talks about coming back, that is what stays with him. Just as important to Elias is the way the team works together, with respect, motivation, and a real sense of support. That shared spirit is what defines Amia day by day.

JONATHAN
Jonathan is the sommelier at Amia. Wine is his passion and what genuinely excites him. He shares his knowledge with curiosity and enthusiasm that quickly draws guests in. If you meet him at Amia, he is always happy to talk about the hidden treasures in our cellar.
And when he is not opening something special from the ‘Black Book’, you will most likely find him in vineyards or at tastings, always looking for new wines and fresh perspectives.

Jonathan is the sommelier at Amia. His passion is the world of wine. With knowledge, curiosity, and pure enthusiasm—which he eagerly shares with guests, with sparkles in his eyes. If you happen to meet him at Amia, don't hesitate to ask him about the hidden treasures in our cellar. When he's not pouring rare selections from our 'Black Book', you'll most likely find him in vineyards or at tastings, always searching for special bottles and new insights.
David has been a good friend of the house way before Amia opened its doors, and we are genuinely happy to have him shaping our bar and cocktails.
He has worked in all kinds of places, won bartending competitions along the way, and even makes his own wine. Still, he is one of the most easygoing and kind people you can meet. His drinks are always creative, always delicious, always very “David.”
And when he is not behind the bar, he is usually somewhere with good music, good company, or out in the vines. A real gem of a human, and we are happy he is with us.

DOMINIK
Dominik has been a close friend of Leonardo and Elias for many years, and his passion for sustainability runs deep. He also runs his own sustainability startup called Mesh GmbH, so whenever we have questions about how to make Amia a little more responsible, he’s the one we turn to. His eye for thoughtful, sustainable choices helps keep us on the right path and we are grateful to have him as a friend of the house.
