Job Description

Red Robin is a unique and vibrant full-service restaurant renowned for its fresh, high-quality gourmet burgers and a welcoming, quirky atmosphere that sets it apart from typical burger joints. Founded on the principles of delivering exceptional dining experiences, Red Robin combines a passion for great food with unbridled hospitality, making every visit memorable. This restaurant chain operates with a strong team dynamic characterized by energy, magnetic personalities, and a collective mission to "Make it fresh. Make it fun. Make it memorable. And above all, make 'em smile." With a laid-back yet high-volume environment, Red Robin is a destination for customers seeking delicious meals alongside a friendly and entertaining atmosphere.

As a Dishwasher at Red Robin, you'll play a vital role in maintaining the smooth operation of the kitchen by ensuring that all dishes, utensils, and kitchen equipment are thoroughly cleaned, sanitized, and organized. This position is essential to the overall guest experience, supporting the kitchen's efficiency and the restaurant’s commitment to cleanliness and food safety. Beyond washing and sorting dishes, you may also be involved in basic food preparation tasks to help keep the kitchen running smoothly. This dishwasher role is an excellent entry-level opportunity to join Red Robin, offering prospects for advancement into other areas within the company. The role is suited for individuals 17 years of age or older who are eager to work in a dynamic environment where their efforts contribute directly to guest satisfaction.

Moreover, Red Robin values work-life balance and flexibility, offering adaptable work schedules that cater to team members’ needs. The position offers competitive hourly wages ranging from $17.13 to $21.41 per hour, with a hiring range specifically between $18.54 and $21.30. In addition to compensation, employees receive a free meal each shift, which complements the restaurant’s culture of community and care for its staff. Team members also enjoy significant discounts on food—50% off for themselves and 25% off for their families—which enhances the overall employment experience.

Red Robin not only values the present contributions of its dishwashers but also invests in their future. The company provides multiple incentives and benefits, including referral bonuses for bringing new team members onboard, a robust employee stock purchase program after one year of service, and comprehensive health insurance options (health, vision, dental, accident, critical illness, and hospital indemnity) for those 18 and older. Eligible employees aged 21 and over can participate in a 401k retirement plan featuring company matching contributions of up to 4% of pay. Paid time off accrues for regular employees working over 35 hours per week after one year of service, offering additional support for work-life balance.

Red Robin prides itself on being an equal opportunity employer that embraces diversity and inclusion, welcoming individuals who share their passion for hospitality and enthusiasm for creating a memorable guest experience. The company maintains an ongoing application process, encouraging motivated individuals to join their team and grow professionally within a company that promotes from within. Many of Red Robin’s managers began their careers as hourly team members, highlighting the growth potential within the organization.

Joining Red Robin as a Dishwasher means becoming part of a passionate, energetic team committed to quality, fun, and community. This role is much more than cleaning dishes; it is an integral part of a restaurant culture that values safety, efficiency, and above all, creating smiles for guests and staff alike. Whether you are entering the workforce for the first time or looking to develop your hospitality career, Red Robin offers a supportive and enjoyable environment to help you achieve your goals and advance in an exciting industry.
