Our goal is simple: create memorable experiences that keep guests coming back. We take pride in our quality, attention to detail, energetic team, and commitment to delivering an outstanding dining experience every time.

As we continue to grow, we’re looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Assistant General Manager (AGM) to join our leadership team.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a hands-on, energetic, and experienced Assistant General Manager who thrives in a fast-paced restaurant and bar environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for a hospitality professional who enjoys leading people, building strong teams, maintaining high operational standards, and being actively involved in the day-to-day success of the restaurant.

As AGM, you will work closely with the General Manager and leadership team to oversee front-of-house and back-of-house operations, drive exceptional guest experiences, support team development, and help achieve operational and financial goals.

We’re looking for a leader who leads by example, takes ownership, and brings positive energy to the team every day.

Key Responsibilities

- ⁠Oversee daily restaurant and bar operations to ensure smooth, efficient, and professional service.

⁠ Lead, motivate, coach, and develop front-of-house and back-of-house team members. ⁠ ⁠Assist with recruiting, interviewing, onboarding, training, scheduling, and performance management.
