Quality, Australian sourced beef is the thing we do best. Using butchery, cheffing and farming know-how, Aussie produce-champion, Matt Moran, calls the cuts.

With years of grill skill behind each wagyu, sirloin and eye fillet, steak perfection is an art. Our signature Montague broiler is made for meat mastery; we know when to get out of flavour's way.

Attracting a steady flow of corporates, special occasion diners and foodies 6 days per week, Chophouse is a high-end, contemporary steakhouse dishing up premium meats in a warmly lit vintage space.

Housing over 300 wines, Chophouse has an extensive wine list curated by head sommelier Rodrigo Duran that highlights wine makers from Australia, New Zealand, France, Italy, Spain, Argentina, USA and Germany. The dimly lit dining room, complete with elevated cathedral style ceilings and rich wood grain textures throughout, create a sophisticated atmosphere and set the stage for a premium dining experience to remember.

The Role

We are on the hunt for an experienced Host who has worked across some of Sydney’s most on-trend premium casual dining venues and knows how to create an exceptional guest experience from the moment they walk through the door.

At Chophouse, we’re looking for a hospitality professional who is warm, confident and organised, with a natural ability to make every guest feel welcome. As the first and last point of contact, you’ll play a key role in setting the tone for the entire dining experience.

You’ll confidently manage reservations, coordinate table allocations and work closely with the floor team to ensure service runs seamlessly. Our guests range from corporate diners and Sydney foodies to special occasions and groups of friends getting together for a night to remember.

Our culture is professional, welcoming and passionate about hospitality, with regular training, development and mentorship to help you continue building your skills and career.

The Perks:

• 50% discounts on F & B across Solotel’s diverse portfolio
• Elite training and upskilling programs to help you master your skills
