Taverna Toscana Bartender Position

Tuscany and Florida share three distinct traits: a warm sun, wonderful people, and a passion for fresh air and good food. Nowhere is that more evident than Taverna Toscana, an authentic Italian chophouse that blends culinary excellence with modern leisure. Located in Bradenton, Florida's friendliest city, Taverna Toscana's indoor/outdoor concept is buzzing with families, foodies, CEOs and couples alike. The steaks are aged to perfection, the pasta is made from scratch, the drinks are crafted with care, and the decor draws the mind to Italy itself. It's not a hidden gem. It's a bold statement. And it's calling for you. This is an exciting opportunity and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
