About Us

Welcome to Daily Gather — where genuine hospitality, thoughtful details, and chef-driven dishes come together to create meaningful connections. We’re a full-service restaurant focused on elevated everyday dining — the kind of place where locals gather for brunches, date nights, business lunches, and everything in between.

We believe hospitality is a craft — one that starts with our people. We’re looking for Front of House Managers who are passionate about service, thrive in a polished yet approachable environment, and know how to lead a team with warmth, consistency, and excellence.

What You’ll Do
  • Lead shifts with confidence, ensuring smooth operations and an exceptional guest experience from open to close

  • Support all areas of the floor — greeting tables, overseeing pacing and service flow, managing reservations, and resolving guest concerns with professionalism and care

  • Partner closely with the kitchen team to ensure seamless communication, accurate timing, and the highest quality presentation of every dish

  • Coach and develop servers, bartenders, and hosts through hands-on leadership, consistent feedback, and active engagement

  • Maintain service standards that reflect the Daily Gather brand — thoughtful touches, genuine interactions, and attention to detail

  • Oversee floor plans, reservations, and seating flow to balance guest satisfaction and server coverage

  • Ensure side work, opening/closing duties, and cleanliness standards are completed at or above expectation

  • Monitor guest feedback and help identify opportunities for continued improvement

  • Support all beverage and bar operations as needed, including TABC compliance and service standards

  • Prior full-service restaurant leadership or floor management experience required

  • Open availability, including nights, weekends, and holidays

Skills & Knowledge

  • Strong understanding of front-of-house operations (service flow, pacing, table touches, guest recovery)

  • Excellent communication and leadership skills — able to motivate, train, and support a diverse team

  • Skilled in guest relations and conflict resolution with a calm, solutions-first mindset

  • Familiar with POS systems, reservations platforms (like OpenTable), and cash handling

  • Comfortable working collaboratively with the kitchen, bar, and host teams

Leadership & Teamwork

  • Leads by example with integrity, professionalism, and a hands-on approach

  • Inspires confidence and trust through consistency and accountability

  • Fosters a culture of teamwork, hospitality, and mutual respect

  • Thrives under pressure and keeps energy positive even during peak volume

Why Daily Gather?

At Daily Gather, we’re redefining what neighborhood dining can feel like — refined yet approachable, elevated but never pretentious. We value development, and creating a culture where our managers can lead authentically while growing professionally.

If you’re passionate about hospitality and want to be part of a brand that believes in the power of connection — both with our guests and our people — we’d love to meet you.
