Job Description

Silver Diner Development LLC is a prominent leader within the American casual dining sector, renowned for its commitment to quality, hospitality, and community engagement. Celebrated for its Fresh and Local Menu crafted with award-winning flexitarian and healthy options, Silver Diner bridges the gap between traditional tablecloth dining and fast food by prioritizing high-quality ingredients sourced directly from partnerships with over 15 local farms specializing in organic and sustainable practices. Recognized as one of Washington Post's 'Most Diverse Places to Work', listed among Full Service Restaurant Magazine's '20 Full Service Restaurants to Watch', and awarded the 2020 TDn2K Best Practices Award in the Family Dining category, Silver Diner stands out for both its restaurant excellence and its dedication to its workforce.

The company embodies a culture that puts people first, fostering an environment where employees can grow professionally and personally. This is evident in the fact that more than 60% of Silver Diner's managers and all of its General Managers and Area Directors have been promoted from within, reflecting the organization's commitment to internal growth and career development. At Silver Diner, employees are offered more than just a job; they are presented with a career path full of opportunities to advance and thrive.

The role they are offering is ideal for those passionate about hospitality, connecting with people, and serving great food aligned with modern trends. This position involves being the face of the Silver Diner brand to guests and actively promoting the flexitarian menu designed by award-winning Chef Ype Von Hengst. The restaurant seeks contagiously friendly, warm, and energetic individuals to deliver an exceptional dining experience in a fast-paced yet fun atmosphere where everyone is empowered to achieve their personal best.

This role is available both full time and part time with shifts including first, second, rotating, and weekend availability. Candidates must be able to work weekends and holidays as part of the commitment to ensuring guests receive attentive service at all times. The dining environment at Silver Diner is one of the busiest in America and offers a dynamic platform for employees to grow within the company and become trainers, supervisors, or managers if they choose to pursue advancement.

Compensation for full-time servers can reach $800 or more per week in tips alone, emphasizing the rewarding nature of this position. Additionally, Silver Diner provides a rich benefits package including medical, dental, and vision insurance options, a 401K plan for retirement savings, and an Employee Assistance Program for support needs. Perks such as referral bonuses, meal discounts, gym membership discounts, and work shoe discounts further add value to the working experience.

Prospective employees must be of legal age to serve alcohol and have weekend and holiday availability. While previous serving experience is preferred, it is not a requirement, as Silver Diner values a genuine love of hospitality and a caring attitude above all. By joining Silver Diner, individuals become part of a vibrant family-like community dedicated to delivering excellence to their guests and fostering growth among their people.
