About Us Quaintance-Weaver Management®, Quaintance-Weaver Restaurants® and its sister company, Quaintance-Weaver Hotels®, are a family of companies in North Carolina with separate leadership teams. Our link is our common culture of community service, our senior leadership (Dennis Quaintance and Nancy King Quaintance) and our ownership (Dennis Quaintance and Mike Weaver). Nancy King Quaintance & Dennis Quaintance We are different! Our common culture and objectives are different than most restaurant and hotel companies that we've found. We are different because we approach our work with some basic ideas in mind and we ask our team members to also approach their work using these principles as their guidelines. We believe that success is only a by-product of worthwhile objectives. Mike Weaver and I (Dennis Quaintance) define worthwhile objectives as those that are of genuine service to the community. Here the community is our guests and staff members. So, we have designed our mission around our community service oriented values. Our mission statement that follows defines us. It is who we are, our purpose, our values, our reason for being and our promise. When we keep the promise of the first four statements to our guests and staff members, then the fifth mission statement will be the natural by-product. A Brief History Mike Weaver and I (Dennis Quaintance), formed this company in April of 1988 and opened our first restaurant in Greensboro in June of 1989. We started the company because we are good friends and want to be in business together and because we believe that providing the services embodied in our mission will result in a successful company. We are partners. I play point with the operations of the company and Mike helps and contributes in all matters. Mike is a great guy and I admire his business ability, ethics and success. He is chairman of Weaver Investment Company and does a lot of volunteer work. I started as a housekeeper's assistant when I was fifteen at a hotel in Missoula, Montana. I worked my way up. I was assistant general manager, rooms and food & beverage director of a hotel in Richland, Washington. I went on to work with four and five star hotels and restaurants to broaden my experience. I played the role of general manager of a great restaurant for three years and regional manager for a full-service chain for three years. I chose my career focus early and am fortunate to have worked in every job function in both hotels and restaurants. Email Me Nancy King Quaintance also started her career at 15, but as a dishwasher with Disney in Florida. She went on to Cornell's Hotel School and worked in sales and front office operations for several major hotel companies. She studied hospitality and the culinary arts and was a food and beverage teaching assistant while at Cornell. She joined QWRH in 1994 and now plays roles on our marketing, operations and culinary teams. Email Nancy Bart Ortiz worked with us as a line cook in 1990 while in college. Then he went off to Indiana University and taught for a while, before he returned to our team. He is now a Vice President of QW Restaurants, plus the Chef and Operating Partner of Print Works Bistro. Email Bart Will Stevens joined our company in 1997 after having a successful FBO Airport operation. Will worked as a porter and in other hotel and restaurant jobs as he was coming up.
