Now Hiring: A Lead-by-Example Restaurant Manager

We’re looking for a Restaurant Manager who is passionate about delivering memorable dining experiences and fostering a creative, collaborative environment grounded in respect and a genuine desire to serve others.

About Buddakan:
A surreal oasis nestled unassumingly in NYC's vibrant Meatpacking District, adjacent to Chelsea Market. The restaurant combines the serenity of Asia with the flamboyance of 16th-century Paris. Otherworldly art, ornate chandeliers, and a bevy of gilded details kick the senses into overdrive, setting a dramatic precedent for fanciful, shareable pan-Asian fare inspired by multiple traditions. As Buddakan embarks on an exciting new collaboration with Chef Danny Bowien — the visionary behind Mission Chinese — the restaurant continues to evolve, bringing bold new flavors and creativity to its already iconic menu.

This position offers a comprehensive package including:

  • A Base Salary Range of $80,000- $85,000
  • Quarterly Bonus Program
  • Paid Vacation and Sick Time
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits Coverage
  • Dining Discounts at over 25 Affiliated STARR Restaurants
  • Professional development opportunities, including the STARR Wine & Beverage Scholarship Program

Qualifications:

  • A minimum of 2 years of restaurant management experience in an upscale, high-volume restaurant
  • Strong leadership and strategic management skills
  • Ability to drive performance and success
  • Prior familiarity with POS, ALOHA, OpenTable and Resy software systems is highly preferred
  • A passion for Asian cuisines is a plus!
Buddakan New York 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.

Compensation: Salary ($80,000.00 - $85,000.00)

Benefits & Perks: Health Insurance, Dental Insurance, Vision Insurance, Life Insurance, Paid Time Off, 401k, Commuter Benefits, Potential Bonuses, Dining Discounts, Wellness Program

Part of STARR Restaurants

The surreal atmosphere of this awe-inspiring restaurant in the Meatpacking district of Manhattan combines the serenity of Asia with the flamboyance of 16th century Paris. The menu features fanciful interpretations of Chinese dishes and delights even the most discriminating palates. - Open Table

“Stunning” decor lends a “dark, sexy” backdrop to the “trendy” scene at Chelsea multilevel “mega room”, a “bigger-than-life experience” where the “energetic” crowd is “blown away” by “flavorful” Asian dishes. - Zagat
