Job Details

Affiliated with STARR Restaurants, El Presidente is a festive, neo-retro Mexican eatery anchored inside Washington, D.C’s newly-developed Signal House. A robust and creative menu highlights heirloom ingredients with a modern twist – a raw bar, guacamole with king crab, a la carte tacos and shareable plates like Tomahawk Ribeye and Whole Grilled Fish. Bright agave-forward tequila and mezcal cocktails dovetail with interconnected dining rooms, eclectic interiors and legendary south-of-the-border hospitality. Because at its heart, El Presidente is about the theater of going out.

The team is seeking Servers who love classic Mexican cocktails & cuisine, but more importantly providing a unique experience to patrons.

This position offers a comprehensive package including: 

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits Coverage 
  • Paid Vacation Time 
  • Commuter Benefits 
  • Referral Bonus Programs 
  • Dining Discounts at over 25 Affiliated STARR Restaurants 
  • Opportunity for Career Advancement and Professional Growth 

                                    
Qualified Servers will have:

  • Joyful, outgoing, guest-centric individuals who have a passion for great food and wine served with care and consistency
  • Experience in a Mexican restaurant is highly preferred.
  • At least 2 years of prior experience as a Server in a busy and well-established restaurant in the metro area.
  • Strong knowledge of classic cocktails, basic wine varietals, and beer styles.
  • Ability to clearly go thorough menu selections and provide a unique guest experience
  • Weekend availability

El Presidente is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
