This really is our niche. This one statement captures the following:
We Are:
Position Summary
As a Host/Hostess for Blue Plate Restaurant Company, we expect you to have fun, be engaged and take care of the guest. What makes our Host/Hostesses different from everyone else is we give you the opportunity to be yourself. You don't have a 'script' to follow; we give you free reign to customize your guests' experiences to what they want. We trust you to do this and we'll help you get there. The restaurant Host/Hostess is the first employee to interact with arriving guests as they enter the restaurant. It is the job of the Host/Hostess to greet arriving guests, welcome them into the establishment and seat them. The guests receive their first impression of the service of the restaurant by their exchange with the Host/Hostess.
The Host/Hostess is a personal representation of the service and overall hospitality of the staff of the restaurant. While guests are waiting to be seated or waiting for takeout orders to be ready, it is the job of the Host/Hostess to ensure that the guests are made comfortable and kept informed of the status of their orders or wait times. The Host/Hostess may offer drinks and/or finger food to the guests who have to wait. As guests arrive, the Host/Hostess assesses the dining room and, if an accommodating table is available, escorts the guests to the dining room. In some restaurants, Host/Hostesses are also responsible for taking initial drink orders. Depending on individual restaurant policy, Host/Hostesses either fill the drink order or give the information to the responsible food server. Upon returning to the station, Host/Hostesses also make any necessary changes to the dining room occupancy chart.
