The Longboard Sullivan’s Island is the second iteration of our celebrated coastal dining concept, first launched in 2015 on St. John, USVI. Echoing the island vibes of our flagship, the Sullivan’s Island location offers refined, seafood-forward fare alongside a vibrant bar program featuring Caribbean-inspired craft cocktails. Our setting blends laid-back Low country charm with spirited Caribbean energy to create a relaxed, yet elevated dining experience.

Our restaurants are more than places to eat— they’re destinations to experience. We bring the vibes, the views, and the hospitality to match. With locations across the U.S. Virgin Islands and beyond, we’re all about blending world-class service with the soul of the Caribbean.

We’re seeking dynamic, self-motivated and hospitality-driven team members who are passionate about food, beverage, and creating exceptional guest experiences. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced and team-focused environment. This person solves problems with grace, brings professionalism, a sense of fun, and enjoys working alongside a large team to improve performance and increase retention. Our Expos are the final bridge between our kitchen and the dining room table.

We’re looking for enthusiastic, detail-oriented, and ambitious staff that want to be a part of The Longboard culture.

The Longboard Sullivans Island brings a fresh, vibrant take on coastal Caribbean dining—where tropical, casual vibes meet elevated experiences. Our restaurants are destinations that blend music, sunshine, island flavors, and top-tier hospitality into unforgettable moments. We’re laid-back but dialed-in. Professional but never stuffy. Every guest is welcomed like family— and we take that seriously.
