people
passion, creativity and attention to detail are the engines that drive any restaurant. Founders Jennifer Jasinski and Beth Gruitch lead the team at Rioja. Read more about them below:
Jennifer Jasinski
Cooking started at a young age out of necessity for Jasinski. Growing up in a single-parent household with two siblings who all took turns cooking, Jasinski developed a knack for following recipes and creating her own, until eventually, it was always her turn to cook.
Beth Gruitch
When people say the restaurant business is in your blood, Beth Gruitch is a believer. Her great grandparents, three generations before her, must have passed down the gene.
Tim Kuklinski
Culinary Director, Crafted Concepts
Denver is lucky to be the last stop for Tim Kuklinski. A peripatetic childhood took him back and forth across the country.
Jeremy Wolgamott
Executive Chef
Three consecutive hurricane years in Louisiana blew Jeremy Wolgamott and his family back to Denver
