Job Details
Back Server / Support | The Paris Café | NYC
Pay: $11.35/hr + tips | Full-Time & Part-Time | Dinner & Late-Night Availability Strongly Preferred
Location: 119 South Street, Manhattan (Seaport District)
 
The Paris Café is officially open in the Seaport. First opened in 1873, this New York landmark is back with a reimagined menu rooted in French bistro classics, a strong beverage program, and an atmosphere built for late-night energy, private events, and everyday elegance.
 
We are building a fast, sharp, and high-energy front-of-house team. Back Server/Support Staff is essential to keeping service smooth, organized, and efficient. You’ll work closely with servers and bartenders to maintain the dining room, support table turns, and make sure guests have everything they need, often before they have to ask.
 
What You’ll Do:
  • Reset and prepare tables quickly and accurately
  • Support servers by refilling water, clearing plates, and maintaining table upkeep
  • Run food and assist with delivery when needed
  • Maintain cleanliness and organization of the dining room and service stations
  • Anticipate guest and team needs to keep service flowing
  • Assist with opening and closing side work
What We’re Looking For:
  • 1+ years of restaurant or hospitality experience preferred
  • Experience in support roles (busser, barback, food runner, server assistant)
  • Strong work ethic and sense of urgency
  • Ability to stay organized and move efficiently in a high-volume environment
  • Team-first mentality and clear communication
  • Attention to detail and pride in maintaining a clean, polished space
  • Availability for dinner and late-night shifts
  • Legally authorized to work in the U.S. with valid ID(s)
Bonus Points For:
  • Interest in growing into a server role
  • Familiarity with fast-paced or upscale dining environments
Why This Role Matters:
This isn't just a reopening, it’s a revival. Back Server/Support roles help drive the pace and flow of the entire dining room. Your work ensures service feels effortless, tables turn smoothly, and guests stay immersed in the experience.
 
To Apply:
Please submit your resume and send us a message detailing your availability.
