Among the group's vibrant concepts, Nada stands out as a modern Mexican culinary destination that emphasizes craveable dishes crafted from scratch, featuring unique twists on classic flavors.

Key responsibilities include leading motivational and educational pre-service meetings, creating memorable BPA experiences, and maintaining a strong tableside presence to engage guests, solicit feedback, and address any concerns promptly. The position also entails significant financial responsibilities such as managing inventory, ordering supplies, overseeing tip distribution, adjusting timecards, and reconciling cash and credit transactions to ensure operational efficiency.

Boca Restaurant Group seeks candidates with at least two years of management experience in upscale, full-service, high-volume restaurants.
