About The Position

Ci Siamo is a restaurant from Danny Meyer’s Union Square Hospitality Group and
James Beard semifinalist Chef Hillary Sterling. Located at Manhattan West, this
NYT Top 100 restaurant celebrates the beauty of simplicity centering around
live-fire cooking. The Italian-inflected menu takes inspiration from Chef
Sterling’s extensive travels and is rooted in the understated excellence of
seasonal ingredients and purposeful preparations. Ci Siamo, which loosely
translates to “we’ve made it” or “we’ve arrived,” bridges the traditional with
the contemporary to introduce a new space that is at once transportive yet
warmly familiar.
