Honorable Mention is building one of the most intentional, high-energy dining experiences in the city—and we’re looking for a General Manager who knows how to run a room, not just a schedule.

If you’re comfortable maintaining the status quo, this isn’t for you. If you take pride in dialing in every detail—from the music level to the pacing of a table touch to who gets through the door—you might be exactly who we’re looking for.

Position Objective: The Restaurant General Manager is the operational leader of the restaurant, responsible for the overall management of the day-to-day operations, including overseeing staff, ensuring guest satisfaction, and maintaining operational efficiency.

What You Own:

The Room: You control the door, the energy, the flow, and the guest mix. You understand that ambiance isn’t accidental—it’s curated.

The Team: You build, coach, and hold people accountable daily. You don’t wait for problems—you develop people before they become one.

The Standard: You set the tone for service that is sharp, intentional, and consistent—every shift, no excuses.

The Experience: You ensure every guest interaction feels elevated, seamless, and worth talking about.

The Business: You drive performance—labor, cost, revenue—without sacrificing the guest experience.
