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 Hosts 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 candidates will have:

  • Previous experience as a Host in a well-rated and/or busy restaurant
  • Experience with seating and/or reservation systems
  • Personable & professional demeanor
  • Responsible & timely, strong work ethic
  • Willingness to take direction, team player
  • Open availability - highly preferred
