Denny

About the Role

Key Responsibilities

  • Welcome and seat guests with a warm, friendly attitude
  • Manage the waitlist, reservations, and guest flow efficiently

  • Maintain a clean, organized host stand and pickup area
  • Communicate with servers, kitchen staff, and managers to ensure smooth service
  • Provide excellent customer service during busy periods
Qualifications
  • Friendly, professional, and customer-service oriented
  • Strong communication and multitasking skills
  • Ability to stay organized in a fast-paced environment
  • Comfortable using POS systems and taking phone orders (training provided)
  • Reliable, punctual, and team-focused
  • Previous host, cashier, or customer service experience is a plus — but not required
What We Offer
  • Competitive hourly pay + tip opportunities (if applicable)
  • Flexible scheduling for full-time or part-time availability
  • Opportunities for growth into server or leadership roles
  • Employee meals or discounts (if offered)
  • Supportive, team-oriented work environment
Schedule

  • Full-time or part-time
  • Consistent weekly hours
