- Lead dining room and kitchen staff by example; train and support their professional development
- Ensure guests get excellent service, whether dining in or ordering delivery

- Resolve service issues on the spot, or loop in the General Manager when needed
- Follow all cash-handling policies and procedures
- Uphold state, federal, and local alcohol service laws and liquor controls
- Maintain sanitation and safety compliance
- Support marketing efforts, events, and social media as needed
- Manage retail game sales and the game library, including regular inventory
- Stay current on food, hospitality, and board game trends
- Jump in wherever needed — other duties as they come up

**What You'll Bring**

- 2+ years managing in a high-volume restaurant
- Comfort with cash handling and alcohol service compliance
- Ability to stand/walk for extended periods; occasionally lift up to 50 lbs, bend, reach, stoop, kneel, or crouch
- Knowledge of board games, TCGs, or RPGs a plus
- Retail experience a plus, not required
- Positive, flexible energy and a genuine passion for hospitality — you'll rely on your team, and they'll rely on you

**To Apply**
Email your cover letter, resume, and references. Rolling applications until filled.
