- Assist with light bussing, resetting tables, running menus, and supporting the floor when needed.
- Help identify guest concerns early and alert a supervisor before small issues become bigger ones.
- Improve guest experience by guiding guests toward the right experience, whether that is brunch, dinner, cocktails, date night, private dining, or a special celebration.
What We’re Looking For

- Strong communication skills.
