About Bar Nuestro

Bar Nuestro is a neighborhood bistro rooted in the rhythms of old-world Europe and the sazón of Latin America — a place where the aperitivo hour lingers, the dining room hums, and every gathering feels like it was meant to happen here. Opening at Navy Yard in summer 2026, we are building a team that leads with warmth, operates with precision, and believes that hospitality is something you feel.

The Roles

We're building our founding Front of House team and looking for people who love taking care of others — Servers, Hosts, Food Runners, Bussers, Bartenders, Barbacks, and Shift Leads who bring energy, care, and pride to every shift. Whether you're greeting guests at the door, walking them through the menu, crafting drinks behind the bar, running plates hot from the kitchen, resetting a table so it's guest-ready in seconds, or stepping up to run a shift, you'll help set the tone for what Bar Nuestro is all about. No matter which role you're applying for, you'll be part of a team that has each other's backs during service and celebrates the wins together.

Key Responsibilities

Manage waitlists and communicate accurate wait times
Answer phones professionally and assist with reservation questions

Café Associate

Demonstrate strong product knowledge of coffee, espresso, and beverage offerings
Prepare and present beverages and light bites following Bar Nuestro standards and recipes while meeting speed of service standards
Follow Bar Nuestro's service steps and selling skills to create an exceptional guest experience
Educate and sample guests on food and beverage offerings
Maintain PAR stock levels, product presentation, and merchandising standards
Open and/or close the café area following checklists, verifying completion with the MOD
Maintain cleanliness of the work area and equipment in accordance with Health Department standards

Food Runners

Confirm each dish matches the ticket before it reaches the guest
Communicate with kitchen and servers on timing and special requests
Support expo standards and plate presentation
Assist with table resets and bussing during peak periods
Maintain a clean, organized pass and expo area

Bussers

Clear and reset tables promptly and quietly between courses and turns
Support servers with water, bread, and other table touches
Maintain cleanliness of the dining room and service stations
Polish glassware and silverware, fold linens, and stock service stations

Barbacks

Keep the bar stocked with liquor, beer, wine, garnishes, ice, and glassware throughout service
Support bartenders by prepping garnishes, batching ingredients, and restocking supplies in real time
Maintain cleanliness of the bar area, including glassware, tools, and service stations
Rotate stock and assist with inventory counts and deliveries
