Located in Manhattan Beach, these establishments have become landmarks for hospitality with a compelling dedication to quality and guest experience. The group includes Manhattan Beach Post, opened in April 2011, Fishing with Dynamite itself launched in April 2013, and The Arthur J, introduced in June 2015. Each restaurant boasts a unique atmosphere but shares a common philosophy focused on passion for food, exceptional service, and community connection.
The role of Busser/Runner at Fishing with Dynamite represents a vital position in maintaining the seamless dining experience this group is celebrated for.

Ideal candidates demonstrate flexibility with scheduling, as both lunch and dinner shifts are essential to cover the needs of the venue. Fishing with Dynamite seeks motivated team members driven by continuous learning and improvement, keen to absorb new knowledge about the menu and contribute to an inviting and genuine guest experience. This role offers an excellent opportunity for hospitality professionals who want to be part of a well-respected restaurant group, cultivate strong industry skills, and build meaningful relationships with colleagues and patrons alike.
