Job description

Front of House Team Member

We’re looking for some enthusiastic taco fans to join our Front of House team! If talking tacos with our amazing customers and providing excellent customer service sounds like easy money, we’d love to hear from you!

Who we are: Taco Buddha is a concept influenced by great taco joints from Austin, Texas but has evolved with globally influenced flavors that work in tandem with our New‑Mex‑Tex roots to create delicious tacos, both traditional and adventurous. This, combined with notable, outgoing, and friendly fast‑casual service, has propelled us to our success and growth. We opened our second location in June 2023 and are now gearing up to open our third location in the Botanical Heights neighborhood in St. Louis. We’re looking for humble, invested, and caring candidates to grow with us.

FOH roles are customer-facing and customer-focused, while being communicative with the kitchen to ensure problems get resolved, questions get answered, and everyone leaves happy. While we do not have traditional waitstaff, everyone does their part to provide an excellent experience for our customers.

Host Honcho

Greet customers with outgoing service, communicate effectively to explain wait system and hybrid ordering system, get the good vibes rolling from the jump.

Special Perk: you get to give lots of treats to lots of good dogs.

The representative for all our guests to ensure things are tasting right, issues get resolved, and everybody’s eating with peace.

You’ll find very quickly that our customers LOVE our margaritas. Slangin’ drinks is the name of the game in this position. Must be 21+ years of age.

Special perk: you’ll get exclusive access to our top-secret 25 year old margarita recipe.

You get to guide our customers through our menu, make recommendations, and maybe, just maybe, make some new friends in the process. If you like talking to people and sharing your love of tacos, you’ll thrive here.

Our curbside pickup operation specialist. Talk to the cars (more specifically the people in the cars), get a name, grab their order, double check to make sure everything is in the bag, and deliver it to lots of happy people. Great way to get your steps in.

Shift Leader

You’ve mastered all the different roles that FOH has to offer and you want to add some more responsibility. This role’s duties include being the all-important key holder, cash handling, POS system proficiency, and being a go-to for any issues that might arise. Note: this role does require more open availability and experience.

Qualities we love to see in all our employees:
