Maître D'

$25 - $35 per hour
Full-time, Part-time

Le Coucou

After taking the Parisian dining scene by storm, internationally acclaimed Chef Daniel Rose returned to his home soil with Le Coucou , his celebrated New York City collaboration with restaurateur Stephen Starr . The restaurant’s light-filled interior, with crisp linens, flickering candles, and whitewashed brick, provides an elegant backdrop for Rose’s vibrant interpretation of French cuisine. Balancing the timeless traditions of French gastronomy with a distinctly modern spirit, Le Coucou has established itself as one of New York City’s top dining destinations, earning a Michelin star for seven consecutive years.

We are now seeking an accomplished Maître D' to be a welcoming and polished ambassador for Le Coucou, playing a central role in shaping the guest experience through gracious hospitality, impeccable attention to detail, and a genuine warmth that reflects the spirit of the restaurant.

This position offers a comprehensive package including:

  • An Hourly Rate of $25 - $35
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits Coverage
  • Paid Vacation Time & Sick Time
  • Commuter Benefits
  • Referral Bonus Programs
  • Dining Discounts at over 25 Affiliated STARR Restaurants
  • Opportunity for Career Advancement and Professional Growth

Desired Qualifications:

  • 3 years of experience as Maître D', lead host, or experience in a leadership role in a fine dining or Michelin-starred restaurant 
  • Experience with Resy or OpenTable reservation systems is a MUST
  • Poise and precision, with a natural inclination toward warmth and gracious hospitality
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail 
  • The ability to convey warmth to guests as they walk into the restaurant while being able to clearly articulate reservation details while focusing on etiquette and conveying a sense of calm  

Le Coucou is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
