Host

Host Position

This restaurant that was built on the cornerstone of authentic American comfort, served up one cheese-strewn noodle at a time in a hot dish that bubbles up a chorus of a thousand Michigan memories. OK, we're getting a little out of hand there; but when it comes to mac & cheese, digging deep comes naturally to us. Why? Because it's the stuff of legend. It's that rare combination of the totally expected and the happily surprised. And it's what you'll find at an 1840's church on Main Street in Clarkston, Michigan. Please make yourself at home. Competitive pay and benefits including medical and supplemental insurance, on-demand pay, referral bonus, 401(k) and PTO!
