Timing and schedule reality

Managers are expected on site before lineup and through final close on peak Friday and Saturday services.

What the week really looks like
  • Lunch-to-dinner leadership handoff needs to stay crisp when private dining is live.
  • Weekend dinner peaks require visible floor leadership, labor adjustments, and guest-recovery follow-through.
  • Closing managers are expected to protect cash, coach final side work, and leave a clean morning handoff.
Apply and ask questions in English or Spanish

Managers can explain interview timing, hiring steps, and first-week expectations in either language when needed.

Interview timing is shared up front and same-day offers are not promised unless the full leadership panel is available.

You can start with a conversation before a long application if the location is hosting an open-house event.

Candidate updates are handled by the local team, not a generic national inbox.

Leadership urgency is real at this location

The current General Manager opening is tied directly to service consistency, hiring pace, and same-store stability ahead of the spring event calendar.
