Job Description
Mexico Ceaty is a vibrant and innovative dining concept that offers guests a unique culinary experience, blending creative cuisine with exceptional service and a lively atmosphere. Located inside the Shops at Rivercenter on the San Antonio River Walk, the second most visited destination in Texas after The Alamo, Mexico Ceaty stands as a flagship project within the renowned Jason Dady Restaurant Group. This group has been a cornerstone of San Antonio's culinary scene for over twenty years, with popular establishments such as Tre Trattoria, Two Bros BBQ Market, Roca & Martillo, and more. Mexico Ceaty aims to provide premium hospitality marked by attention to detail and a commitment to delivering unforgettable dining experiences, making it an exciting and ambitious addition to the local food landscape.
The Dishwasher role at Mexico Ceaty is a critical position that ensures the smooth operation of the kitchen by maintaining a continuous flow of clean dishes, glassware, and kitchen equipment. This role is vital because every plate that reaches the guest has passed through the dishwasher's hands. The impact of this position is greater than often recognized, as without clean dishes, the restaurant cannot function efficiently. The ideal candidate for this role embraces the principle of GWC—Get it, Want it, and Capacity to do it—showing full ownership of their responsibilities. This includes washing and sanitizing all dishware continuously throughout shifts, promptly returning cleaned items to their correct stations, and maintaining a clean, safe environment in the dish pit. The dishwasher is also expected to assist with basic kitchen cleaning and prep support during slower periods and to adhere strictly to all sanitation and chemical safety protocols.
A successful dishwasher at Mexico Ceaty proactively manages tasks by taking out trash before overflow, maintaining hazard-free flooring with no standing water, and communicating openly with line cooks and managers if they fall behind to ensure the kitchen always has the resources it needs to operate smoothly. Winning in this role means the kitchen never runs out of clean dishes or glassware during service, the dish pit remains clean and safe throughout the night, and kitchen staff compliment the fast turnaround of their equipment. Ultimately, the dishwasher ensures that the kitchen ends each shift fully clean, organized, and ready for the next day’s service, playing a vital role in the restaurant’s overall success and guest satisfaction.
