Position: Host
About: Our guests come to know and love us for our quality food, drinks and live entertainment atmosphere, but they come back because of the personal relationships they build with our friendly outgoing staff. We’re looking for hosts who can handle the happy hour hustle, direct the big parties for dinner, and dish on dessert at the door as you say bye to our regulars. Our host staff must have a grin ear to ear and an “I am a part of the winning team” attitude. Our hosts are not just seaters, they actively engage with our guests through conversation as they arrive and leave. They don’t just answer the phone and take reservations, they ask the right questions of the guest to ensure we are prepared for their special occasion, casual meal, or night out on the town. They are friendly and fun and have a knack to make a connection with everyone!
