A premier, modern Denver steakhouse and seafood concept is currently seeking an elite, hands-on Front of House Manager to join its leadership team. Breaking the mold of the traditional, stuffy dining room, this high-volume establishment features a bright, airy, and playful atmosphere complete with fiery grills, an expansive charcuterie and oyster bar, and a stunning, floor-to-ceiling glass wine cellar.
The hospitality group behind this concept focuses intensely on delivering an inspiring vibe, impeccable service, and culinary excellence. This Denver Tech Center location represents an elevated, seafood-forward lens within the city's upscale dining scene.
