This is a hands-on, guest-facing role scheduled for Thursday through Saturday, 4:00–8:00 PM, running from September through November or December, with the possibility of future as-needed shifts. You’ll help build confidence and consistency across our FOH team and serve as an in-house resource for both wine and beverage education.

  • Provide floor support during dinner service, focusing on wine and cocktail pairings
  • Offer wine recommendations and pairing suggestions to guests
  • Collaborate with the bar team on cocktail knowledge and selling techniques
  • Train FOH team members on wine varietals, regions, tasting notes, and upselling
  • Conduct informal pre-shift tastings or education sessions as needed
  • Help refine wine service standards and presentation across the team
  • Share beverage insights in a way that’s approachable and engaging for all levels of staff
  • Be a positive, educational presence on the floor during peak dining hours
