Assistant Server

Host — Lunch & Dinner
Adelaide | Woodcliff Lake, NJ

Adelaide is hiring Hosts for dinner service and our upcoming lunch service, beginning in early November. This position participates in Adelaide’s tip pool.

We’re looking for a warm, organized, and dependable person to welcome guests and help keep service running smoothly. As the first and last point of contact, you’ll play an important role in making every guest feel expected, comfortable, and well cared for.

As a Host, you will:

• Greet guests warmly, manage arrivals, and escort parties to their tables.

• Manage reservations, walk-ins, and the waitlist, providing clear and accurate updates.

• Coordinate seating and pacing with servers and management.

• Answer phone calls professionally and assist with reservation inquiries.

• Record guest requests, celebrations, allergies, and dietary restrictions, and communicate them to the appropriate team members.

• Stay aware of table availability and dining room progress throughout service.

• Keep the entrance, host station, and menus clean and organized.

• Thank departing guests and complete assigned opening and closing responsibilities.

We’re looking for someone who communicates clearly, stays composed during busy periods, and enjoys working with people. You should be attentive to details, comfortable managing several requests at once, and able to communicate thoughtfully with both guests and coworkers.

Previous hosting or customer service experience is helpful, but reliability, good judgment, and a willingness to learn are essential. Familiarity with restaurant reservation systems is a plus.

Please include your résumé, a brief introduction, and your availability for lunch and dinner shifts when applying.
