Get Ready to Sizzle: Sizzling steaks are not all our Food Runners bring to the table. You’ll partner with our servers and kitchen staff to deliver a perfectly timed, beautifully presented, high quality dining experience that our guest will return for, time and time again.


This role and you are the perfect pairing if you can:

  • Ensure each plate is perfectly prepared by tracking cooking times on all orders, checking finished product for proper degree of doneness, appearance, and plate presentation.
  • Deliver food to the correct table, guaranteeing every Guest receives exactly what they’ve ordered, just the way they like it.
  • Support the Server as needed to optimize the Guest's dining experience.
  • Demonstrate a Guest first mindset, placing a high priority on the Guest experience.
