Host/Hostess

Melfi's
Charleston, SC Full Time
POSTED ON 2/16/2022 CLOSED ON 4/15/2022

What are the responsibilities and job description for the Host/Hostess position at Melfi's?

Melfi's, a clubby fine-dining Italian restaurant on Upper King Street, is hiring for a great host. We are owned and operated by the same group behind Leon's Oyster Shop, Little Jack's, and Monza.

We are looking for a kickass, stylish, confident, cool host that understands the importance of 'working a room' and connecting with guests. We aren't looking for people to simply walk customers to a table. We want dynamic, confident people who are interested in a position that is personality first in a high-energy environment.

We want someone that wants to dress up stylishly and can balance plenty with a cool head: answering the phone, welcoming customers, identifying and getting to know our regulars, understanding the flow of a busy restaurant, and connecting with team members to run a great service. The best person will be a core part of the restaurant - someone that customers want to see and want to know. Someone who can get them a table. Or remembers their birthday. Or knows their children's names. We want someone that makes the experience personal.

If that's you, this is the gateway to plenty of other opportunities in the restaurant business - whether they be serving, bartending, managing, or otherwise. Only smart and driven folks need apply. If you're great, you'll have the potential to do more, learn more, and earn more.
