Position: FOH (Bartender/Server)

This is a hybrid position for someone who thrives both behind the bar and on the floor — who values team success over personal ego , and who understands that flexibility, communication, and consistency are what great service is built on.

You’ll work both roles on a rotating basis, based on experience, depending on the needs of the evening — bartending one night, running a dining room section the next — while supporting your teammates and the guest experience without missing a beat.

What You’ll Do:

• Serve and bartend at the highest level in a fine dining environment
• Execute a refined cocktail and wine program with consistency and cleanliness
• Deliver emotionally intelligent, high-touch service at tables and the bar
• Float between bar and floor depending on the shift and the team’s needs
• Upsell with subtlety and care — not pressure
• Help maintain pristine mise en place, glassware, and bar tools
• Lead by example in teamwork, timing, polish, and guest focus

You Might Be a Fit If You:

• Have 3+ years of experience in fine dining and/or cocktail bars
• Feel equally confident behind the bar and on the floor.
• Thrive in a team-first environment.
• Are comfortable with cocktail techniques such as fat washing, milk clarification, infusion, and acid adjustment.
• Have a strong foundation of wine knowledge
• Communicate clearly, calmly, and kindly — even when it’s busy
• Can memorize menu details, wine pairings, and craft cocktail recipes quickly.
• Want to build a restaurant worthy of real recognition — together

Position Details:

• Schedule: Tuesday–Saturday evenings (3:00PM–close)
• Pay: Hourly base + tips (average earnings highly competitive)
• Team Size: Small, tight, high-performing
• Role Rotation: You will regularly switch between bartender and server shifts
• Training: Full onboarding, tastings, and menu immersion provided
