Job Description

True Food Kitchen is a renowned full-service restaurant collection with locations across the United States, celebrated for its nutrient-dense, thoughtfully crafted dishes served throughout lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch. The brand is committed to more than just providing meals; it’s dedicated to creating experiences that connect individuals to a life of purpose through food and genuine hospitality. True Food Kitchen emphasizes a culture where vibrant, authentic, fun, and creative personalities thrive, making it a sought-after workplace for those passionate about hospitality and guest service. The company prides itself on fostering warm and welcoming environments, where guests consistently feel right at home, enjoying not only the quality of the cuisine but also the true hospitality offered by the team. Employment at True Food Kitchen is dynamic, inclusive, and growth-oriented, offering both part-time and full-time positions with a flexible schedule suited to AM, PM, and mid-day shifts, accommodating different employee needs and lifestyles. The role of a Host at True Food Kitchen is integral in creating these memorable dining experiences by being the friendly face that greets and seats guests, helping in the smooth operation of the front of house, and ensuring all guests feel valued from the moment they arrive until their departure. Hosts manage reservations and waitlists efficiently, answer guest inquiries over the phone, and maintain the cleanliness and organization of the front desk and entry areas, all while communicating effectively with the service team to coordinate seamless dining service. This role is ideal for individuals who enjoy fast-paced, on-their-feet environments and possess a natural talent for creating warm, inviting atmospheres. Although prior experience in hospitality is a plus, it is not a requirement; True Food Kitchen welcomes enthusiastic and passionate individuals ready to contribute their vibrancy and authenticity to the team's culture. The company supports its team members with development programs designed to encourage growth and career advancement. Additionally, True Food Kitchen offers part-time employees access to affordable, quality healthcare options through partnerships offering telehealth services, Pet Insurance for employees' furry family members, and Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) that provide expert guidance for everyday personal and family challenges. Employees also benefit from restaurant dining discounts, paid volunteer time to support community involvement, and eligibility for the True Giving fund that supports employees in times of life-changing events. True Food Kitchen is an Equal Opportunity Employer, committed to creating a supportive and inclusive workplace free from discrimination based on a wide range of protected characteristics. This commitment ensures all team members have the opportunity to succeed in an environment that values diversity and respect.
