Job description

WHO WE ARE:

Palisociety is a society of unique hotels and residences — Palihouse, Palihotel, Le Petit Pali, ARRIVE by Palisociety, and a growing collection of independently branded properties. Since our first hotel opened in Los Angeles in 2009, we've grown into a nationwide portfolio of neighborhood-centric hotels, restaurants, bars, and event spaces, earning recognition from Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, the New York Times, and more.

We consider our employees our greatest asset: structured training from day one, consistent feedback, and a clear path for growth. We develop our leaders from within, because the strongest hospitality companies are the ones that grow their own.

ABOUT SIMONETTE:

Simonette is an all-day restaurant and bar inside Palihotel Culver City, blending French elegance with the cheerful friendliness of an American café. Located in the heart of Downtown Culver City, it's an homage to the roadside food halls of southern France — shared mussels and a beer at lunch, a hamburger with Dijon and pomme frites, or beef bourguignon and ratatouille with two martinis at night. Utilitarian, unpretentious, and totally chic.

POSITION PROFILE:

We're looking for a friendly Server who's enthusiastic about serving tasty food, drinks, and coffee while forging authentic connections with guests at Simonette.

THE TASK AT HAND:

• Assess, anticipate, and meet guest needs, responding quickly without losing focus on the dining experience.
• Communicate professionally with guests, coworkers, and management, adapting to different personalities with ease.
• Understand the full menu of food and beverage items, communicating it to guests effectively and accurately.
• Recognize and resolve problems using good judgment, tact, and initiative, in line with company policy.
• Perform basic accounting and math, operating cash registers, the Micros system, and hot beverage makers.
• Keep a clean, organized workspace per side-work guidelines.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

• 1 year of related experience as a Server in a high-quality full-service or fast-casual environment.

• Able to lift up to 30lbs
• Flexible schedule, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU:

• Competitive compensation package with medical, dental, vision, and life insurance, plus 401(k).
