Hostess/Host

True Food Kitchen

Join Our Team

We believe that a life of purpose has the power to transform the world.

This isn't just a job - it's a chance to find your true purpose. We're a full-service restaurant collection with locations from coast to coast, known for serving nutrient-dense, thoughtfully crafted dishes for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch.

Who We're Inviting To The Table

Just like our menus, we're looking for people who are vibrant, authentic, fun, and creative—with personalities as colorful as our dishes. Our hosts create a warm, welcoming space where guests feel right at home. They know the difference between good service and true hospitality—and they love making someone's day brighter, happier, and a little more full. It's true!

Recipe For Success

  • Greet and seat guests with a welcoming attitude
  • Manage reservations and waitlists
  • Answer phones and assist with guest questions
  • Keep the front desk and entry area clean and organized
  • Communicate clearly with your team to ensure smooth service

The Perfect Pairing

  • Friendly and outgoing personality
  • Passion for hospitality and guest service
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, on-your-feet environment
  • Experience is a plus, but not required
  • Can stand for long periods of time, and the ability to lift up to 25 pounds

What You Can Look Forward To

  • We have a successful and professional work environment with opportunities for growth and a development program to get you to that next position in your career
  • AM/PM and Mid-day shifts available
  • Part time to 40 hours available per person
  • Part time team members are offered access to affordable, quality health care through Hooray Health and telehealth options
  • Pet insurance for your fur babies
  • Access to expert guidance through EAP/SupportLinc which offers to help you and your family address and resolve everyday issues
  • Restaurant dining discount
  • Paid volunteer time to support your community and favorite charities
  • Eligible to give to and receive from the True Giving fund that supports life changing events

If you're excited about working for us and have most of the skills or experience we're looking for, please go ahead and apply. You could be just what we need! We believe strongly in creating supportive environments where our colleagues can succeed. As such, True Food Kitchen is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, or religious creed, mental or physical disability, medical condition, genetic information, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, marital status, military or veteran status, citizenship, or other protected characteristics under federal, state or local law.
