BAR MARIO — FLOOR CAPTAIN
Bar Mario is looking for a Floor Captain who doesn’t just run service—but understands the soul of what we do.

Guide guests through the menu with confidence and charm
Support and train staff on food, wine, and service standards
Maintain flow between kitchen and dining room
Elevate the guest experience through genuine hospitality
What You Know (and love)
Italian cuisine beyond clichés—regional awareness (Piedmont, Tuscany, etc.)
Classic dishes, ingredients, and preparations
Italian wines: varietals, regions, structure, and pairings
You can speak about Nebbiolo vs Sangiovese without blinking
You know why a Vermentino behaves differently than a Gavi
You enjoy teaching this knowledge to others
What You Are:
A natural leader with strong floor presence
Detail-oriented and standards-driven
Comfortable in high-volume, fast-paced environments
Hospitable, composed, and solution-oriented
Why Bar Mario:
A serious restaurant without taking itself too seriously
Strong team culture and growth opportunities
A place where food, wine, and hospitality actually matter
Details:
Red Hook, Brooklyn
Full-time
Competitive pay (hourly + tips)
If you can run a room and talk wine like it matters, we’d love to meet you.
