Job Description

Please Apply : Hard-working, humble, people-savvy leader ready to become an elite fine dining pro

As a member of our Service Team, you might split time between different places -- the dining room, the barista or wine stations, private dining, expo or behind one of our bars. We can teach the right person to be the best at a variety of roles, but we can't teach you to be kind, generous of heart, self-aware, curious, or to like people.

Schedule : A commitment to working 4-5 days a week is necessary.

Starting pay : $24-$27/hour, plus tips

Benefits :

• Employees have the option of enrolling in Canlis insurance policy after working for 60 days, at least 30 hours a week. Canlis offers medical, vision, dental, and life insurance.

• Canlis offers all staff members a 401k program that matches 75% up to 8% of your pay.

  • Additionally, after working at Canlis for at least 6 months - all employees receive a dinner for two (not including any alcohol ordered) continuing education credit each calendar year to dine at the restaurant. The dinner for two credit may not be carried over into the subsequent calendar year. Both the discount and the credit cannot be used on Friday/Saturday or the month of December.
• Canlis provides universal paid time off (PTO) to all employees, for use as paid vacation leave, sick leave, or safe leave. The Canlis Hourly Staff PTO Policy is below (accrual based on 40 hours worked):

Tips: Canlis charges an automatic 20% service charge that is retained 100% by the restaurant. Guests are not expected to tip on top of this, but often do. When they do, all employees are responsible for accurately reporting all their tips. As one of the oldest tip pools in America, Canlis has a rich history and tradition in respect to the sharing of tips among tipped employees. Tips are dispersed amongst the hourly staff (exception: valets, whose tips are handled separately) who work service, both kitchen and dining room.
