The team from Golden Diner looking for Experienced Hosts for an exciting new project!

Opening February 2025, we’re seeking experienced hosts to join our team for an exciting multi-concept project. The team from Golden Diner is bringing two distinct yet complementary dining experiences under one roof: Golden HOF and NY Kimchi.

About Golden HOF
Golden HOF is a lively, fun, and dynamic space inspired by traditional Korean-style HOF bars. With casual pub vibes and a modern twist, our menu features classic anju, jjigae, and shareable dishes, perfectly paired with a creative beverage program highlighting Korean liquors, craft beers, and original cocktails. It’s a high-energy, fast-paced environment where guests come to enjoy great company, drinks, and delicious food.
About NY Kimchi
NY Kimchi offers a more refined yet equally adventurous dining experience. A modern raw bar and steakhouse with deep Korean influences, our menu showcases high-quality American steak cuts and fresh crudo, infused with Korean flavors. Complemented by expertly crafted wines and Korean-inspired cocktails, this is dining with sophistication and boldness.
