Job Description

Job Summary :

We’re hiring Support Staff to help execute a service experience that’s fluid, elevated, and full of soul. This isn’t a traditional busser or barback role. It’s a multifaceted position for someone who’s eager to grow, contribute, and take pride in the details. The ideal candidate is friendly, outgoing, and has fantastic attention to detail. 

Responsibilities :

• Set up and break down the service bar with care and precision
• Stock beverages, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks before and during service
• Organize and restock to-go packaging and FOH supplies
• Observe and visit open tables to check in on beverage service.
• Work the service bar, mixing our signature cocktails, beers and wine.
• Run food from kitchen to table and present each dish clearly and confidently
• Perform bottle wine service at tables (training provided)
• Bus and reset tables efficiently, maintaining a clean and welcoming dining room
• Deep clean and close down beverage and dining stations after service
• Support the front-of-house manager with any operational needs as they arise

Compensation & Benefits :

• $10.50/hour base pay
• Fixed share of the service charge (distributed consistently and fairly)
• Eligible for guest tips —any additional gratuity left is distributed amongst tip eligible FOH, per NYS law
• Opportunity for cross-training in wine, cocktails, and elevated service
• Be part of a tight-knit, forward-thinking team that values creativity and hospitality

What We're Looking For :

• A team player with a strong work ethic and attention to detail
• Someone who thrives in fast-paced environments and takes initiative
• Ability to meet the physical demands of the position, including standing for long periods and carrying trays
• A willingness to learn and grow within a service-forward, hospitality-driven culture
• Familiarity with food safety guidelines
• Prior restaurant experience is a plus, but not required—we’ll train the right person

Why Work With Us :
At Sara’s Kitchen, we don’t just want employees—we want collaborators. People who are excited to think outside the box, take care of others, and be part of something that feels special. If you’re ready to level up your hospitality career in a restaurant that values creativity, culture, and guest connection—we’d love to meet you.
