“Where the Stars are treated like Locals & Locals are treated like Stars.”

It is our objective to make EVERYONE who walks into our establishment’s day a little better. How that happens is the magic of it. We will see you when you walk in, we will communicate with you directly, and we will use our knowledge, experience and empathy to enhance your time with us,

We will carry ourselves with dignity, treat others with common courtesy and respect, and have reverence for our surroundings......We’ll then expect our guests to act in kind.

This is a concept of passion about food, service, wine, and community. Our vision is one of a confident, educated and welcoming staff who will translate the meaning of this concept to each one of our guests and be a concierge to our clientele. Consistency of service is paramount in delivering the desired experience, from the minute they pick up the phone to make a reservation, to the minute they return to their car.

We will always “bring something to the table”, because we can. A smile, a polite compliment, a wine / food / book suggestion, eye contact, etc. Every enhancement of life does just that. They bring the joy that should define our guest’s experience.

Work in tandem with the Management and Bar Teams on the day-to-day business needs of the restaurant, maintain high standards of food and beverage quality, service and merchandising to maximize guest experience. The ability to interact with staff (at all levels) in a fast-paced environment, sometimes under pressure, remaining flexible, proactive, resourceful, and efficient, with a high level of professionalism is crucial to this role.

All staff are kindly asked to understand that the property operation is 7 dinners and 2 brunches a week, inclusive of all holidays. While the company will make every attempt to create a work and life balance, all hourly paid team members may be asked to work extended shifts and additional days based on business demands. The busiest of days are June through September, the weekend days from Friday through Sunday, and on holiday weekends that are celebrated on Mondays, this can include Mondays.

All staff must be aware and able to work all weekends; requesting time off for a holiday weekend may not and will likely not be granted. The more flexible you are the more you can learn, grow, earn.
