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

 

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.
