The role of a Server at American Social is integral to the guest experience and the overall success of the restaurant. Servers are expected to uphold the company’s vision and core values while maintaining a polished appearance and a positive attitude. This position requires punctuality, preparation, and a commitment to providing the best possible service. Servers are responsible for greeting guests promptly and courteously, guiding them through the beverage and food menus by making informed and specific suggestions, and confidently describing and selling all menu items. Efficient delivery of beverages and food, engagement with guests during the meal, and ensuring guests feel valued are key aspects of the role. Closing the guest experience professionally by collecting payment and inviting guests back is equally important.

Additionally, servers support restaurant upkeep by cleaning and preparing tables for new guests and stocking supplies to maintain a clean and organized environment. This role requires agility and adaptability as servers may be called upon to assist both front-of-house and back-of-house operations, work cohesively within a team, and handle the pressures of a busy restaurant environment. Flexibility in working late-night shifts, often between midnight and 3 AM, is essential. Servers are expected to have required certifications such as alcohol awareness (e.g., ServSafe, TIPs) and, preferably, food handling certification. Communication skills, physical stamina for tasks such as transporting items and standing for extended periods, and attention to detail are fundamental qualifications. The Server position at American Social offers an engaging work environment for individuals motivated by quality service, teamwork, and a fast-paced dining experience.
