His background includes leadership roles with globally recognized brands including STK and Chef Philippe Chow, where he became known for creating elevated dining experiences rooted in precision, hospitality, and authentic guest connection.

A graduate of Northwood University with a degree in Business Management, George blends operational expertise with a strong understanding of luxury hospitality and brand culture.

Elnara Tagieva

Assistant General Manager

Elnara serves as the Assistant General Manager at Barbouzard, where she brings a refined, global perspective to hospitality leadership.

Born into a family of restaurateurs, her journey began at the age of seven when her family relocated to Moscow, Russia, where her father opened a series of restaurants. Immersed in the industry from a young age, hospitality was imprinted early, yet her professional path initially led elsewhere.

After earning a degree in Business Administration, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in marketing. There, she built and led departments within boutique firms, gaining deep operational and strategic insight. However, it was her innate passion for service and experience-driven environments that eventually pulled her back toward hospitality.

She pivoted into the role of Events Manager at NeueHouse in Hollywood, where she oversaw high-profile events for some of the entertainment industry’s most prominent figures. The role sharpened her ability to operate with poise under pressure and instilled a deep appreciation for elevated, detail-oriented service.

She went on to help launch Crawford’s Social in Calabasas, California, where she played a foundational role in concept development, team building, and operational leadership, helping the restaurant reach $10 million in annual revenue.

Now based in Washington, D.C., she leads Barbouzard’s hospitality program with a focus on excellence, culture, and guest experience, bringing together her creative roots, operational expertise, and lifelong connection to the world of restaurants.
