Job Description

Chili's is a renowned casual dining restaurant that was founded in Dallas, Texas in 1975. It has grown into a staple in the American dining landscape, famous for its Big Mouth burgers, house smoked ribs, sizzling fajitas, and hand shaken margaritas. Over the years, Chili's has built a legacy based on excellent service, warm hospitality, and a strong commitment to giving back to the community. Known for creating memorable dining experiences, Chili's focuses on delivering quality food paired with an inviting atmosphere where guests feel valued and welcomed consistently.

The Food Runner position at Chili’s plays a crucial role in enhancing the guest experience by bridging the gap between the kitchen and the dining area. Food Runners at Chili’s are passionate about food, beverages, and providing outstanding hospitality.
