Front-line vibes. First impressions. You set the tone.

  • Keep menus crisp, stations clean, and supplies stocked.
  • Answer phones with finesse—reservations, questions, and all the in-betweens.
  • Assist with cash handling and check control—accuracy is your middle name.
  • Support servers and bussers with seating flips, sidework, and light cleaning.
