Job Description

In addition to housing a New York style long bar, guests can enjoy the full steakhouse menu and wash it down with an extensive list of premium select alcohols, wines by the glass, martinis, classic cocktails and craft beers.

Under the direction of the Bar Manager, our Bartenders are extremely knowledgeable about all food and beverage items in the restaurant. By adhering to the steps of service they answer questions, provide recommendations, and create a positive fanatical guest experience. Our Bartenders maintain an immaculately clean bar and monitor food quality to ensure all items are held to Century Hospitality Groups presentation standards.
