About Us

We’re a new, locally owned, upscale neighborhood restaurant bringing elevated food and wine to Solana Beach. Polished yet approachable, we focus on exceptional hospitality, seasonal coastal cuisine, and a strong sense of community. We’re seeking a Assistant General Manager to lead our front-of-house team with calm confidence, elevate service execution, and help us continue to grow off of the strong foundation we have established

Role Overview

As the Assistant General Manager , you’ll be a key player in our daily operations and guest experience. You'll lead service during peak hours, coach and develop the front-of-house team, and ensure every guest interaction reflects our high standards. This is a hands‑on leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, detail-oriented environment and genuinely enjoys building a strong team culture. We will also want to collaborate on creative ways to drive business into the restaurant, and work together to understand and analyze the restaurant's financials.

Responsibilities

• Lead and coach FOH team members, creating a “training team” that models service standards and company values
• Manage weekly staff scheduling to meet labor targets and service demands
• Actively manage the floor during peak hours—pacing the room, supporting guest recovery, and leading pre-shift meetings
• Maintain and improve operational playbooks (e.g., opening / closing checklists, comp / void protocols, service steps)
• Oversee private event bookings from inquiry to execution, including holds, confirmations, and follow-ups
• Collaborate with the chef and beverage lead on menu features, tastings, and staff education
• Monitor labor cost and productivity by reviewing punches, spotting trends, and communicating insights to leadership
• Utilize Toast POS for daily operations; Toast experience is a plus
• Support social media management as needed (optional, based on skillset)
• Ensure compliance with California labor laws, food safety standards, and maintain a professional, inclusive workplace
