Server

Job Overview

This server position is all about creating a great experience for guests in New Orleans, LA. You're the face of the dining room, balancing quick service with genuine hospitality. It's a role where your energy and attention to detail directly shape someone's night out.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Guide guests through menus, answer questions, and make recommendations you actually believe in.
• Manage orders from start to finish; entering them accurately, pacing courses, and ensuring everything arrives as it should.
• Handle payments and settle checks with care, keeping transactions smooth and error free.
• Maintain your section so it's always welcoming, from wiping tables to resetting places quickly between seatings.
• Work closely with the kitchen and bar staff to keep service flowing, especially when it gets busy.

Requirements

Expect a mix of day, night, weekend, and holiday shifts; schedules are typically posted weekly.

Why You'll Like This Opportunity
