Job Description
We’re a modern Mexican restaurant located in the historic Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC. Amparo is a reflection of contemporary Mexican cuisine while exploring and honoring the authentic flavors of Mexico’s diverse heritage with a focus on its bountiful coastal regions.
Amparo is committed to creating a more kind and gentle work environment compared to the industry standard. We are dedicated to exploring and realizing human potential through experience and education. Our goal is to build a team of energetic, thoughtful, curious and cooperative individuals.
The day at Amparo begins at sunrise and we don't close our door until the end of dinner service. We're in search of early risers excited to greet the day as well as the night owls that keep our cities' restaurants buzzing with excitement well into the evening. This allows for greater flexibility in scheduling, as well as opportunities for people with limited availability during typical restaurant hours.
We are looking for teammates that are quietly confident and approachable. Our ideal colleague thrives in a non-stop environment, is open-minded, has a great sense of humor, finds solutions, works well with a team, and proactively creates positive outcomes.
Responsibilities
You'll be expected to provide an authentic, friendly, enthusiastic, and professional culinary experience paired with impeccable service and a genuine sense of hospitality for our guests. You must have a passion for continuous learning and discovery by embracing an active and innovative approach to expanding your knowledge of food and beverage. Our menu is expansive and atypical of Mexican cuisine in the United States. This dedication to authenticity brings with it a catalog of exciting and uncommon ingredients which you will be expected to speak to with confidence. You understand the concept of extreme ownership. Extraordinary attention to detail, exacting focus, and front-of-house experience is a must. This role requires dedication, passion, creativity, and the ability to persevere through challenging services while constantly striving to maintain the standards of Amparo Fondita.
