Job Description

Summary
A new dining room is about to join Toronto's vibrant culinary scene - and it's one to watch. This concept brings a refined, modern brasserie energy to the Financial District, offering the kind of experience where business lunches linger into dinner, and evenings evolve into something memorable. Set across multiple levels, the space blends warm hospitality with a sense of downtown polish - think classic steakhouse comforts, fresh seafood on ice, handcrafted cocktails, and a wine list designed to impress. The atmosphere is lively without being loud, elegant without feeling formal, and rooted in a genuine love of great food and good company. This opening comes from a hospitality group known for creating destinations - places where details matter, service feels personal, and the room has a pulse. This new venue continues that story, bringing something new yet comfortably familiar to one of the city's most iconic neighbourhoods.
The General Manager will be the driving force behind operational execution, guest experience, and team culture. The ideal leader understands how to create an environment where service feels warm, seamless, and memorable - where guests stay a little longer because it just feels right. The General Manager will collaborate closely with ownership and culinary leadership to establish standards, shape service philosophy, and build a high-performing, hospitality-driven team.
