Job Description

Description:

At Lot 54, we are passionate about delivering exceptional food, high-energy service, and a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere. We know that a great dining and bar experience relies on a strong, quick-moving support team behind the scenes!

At Lot 54, we work hard, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. We're looking for teammates who bring good vibes, keep the team dynamic fun, and aren't camera-shy! We love featuring our crew in behind-the-scenes social media content, hype videos, and team highlights. If you love good food, good energy, and having a blast with your team, this is the job for you.

We are seeking fast, energetic, and proactive Bussers / Barbacks to support both our dining room and bar team. In this dual support role, you’ll keep the restaurant moving—clearing and resetting tables quickly for guests while making sure our bartenders never run out of ice, glassware, or fresh prep during high-volume shifts.

• Floor Support (Bussing): Clear dirty dishes, glassware, and silver from dining tables efficiently. Wipe down, sanitize, and reset tables quickly to keep guest wait times low.
• Bar Support (Barbacking): Keep the bar fully stocked with ice, liquor, beer, wine, glassware, citrus, garnishes, syrups, and clean towels throughout the shift.
• Glassware & Sanitation: Run glassware and bar tools through dish stations rapidly to ensure a steady supply of clean glasses for both the bar and floor.
• Dining Room Upkeep: Assist servers with water refills, trash removal, floor sweeps, and keeping service stations fully stocked.
• Vibe & Culture: Bring high energy to every shift, maintain a positive hustle, and participate in fun, behind-the-scenes social media videos and team highlights.

• Experience: Prior experience as a busser, barback, or runner in a fast-paced restaurant or bar is a plus, but we are happy to train anyone with the right hustle and attitude!
• Speed & Stamina: Ability to move fast, stay on your feet for long shifts, and comfortably lift/carry heavy bus tubs, ice buckets, and kegs (up to 50 lbs).
• Personality: Upbeat, camera-friendly, reliable, and thrives in a high-energy team environment.
• Attention to Detail: Quick eye for cleanliness, empty tables, and low bar stock before the team even has to ask.
• Availability: Flexible schedule required, including weekend daytime or night shifts.

• Competitive hourly pay + tip share
• Flexible shift schedules (Morning/Brunch, Lunch, or Night focus)
• A fun, supportive, and dynamic team environment
• Opportunities to learn FOH/BOH operations and cross-train into Server or Bartender roles
