What are the responsibilities and job description for the Maitre D position at Rosie's?
We’re Hiring a Maitre’d!
Join a busy, high-energy East Village restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere and a walk-in heavy guest flow. High volume. We’re looking for a polished, personable Maitre’d who thrives in a fast-paced environment and knows how to manage the door with confidence and hospitality. This role is perfect for someone who can think on their feet, handle volume with ease, and create a seamless guest experience from the moment guests arrive.
Rosie’s offers elevated takes on traditional Mexican dishes and margaritas in a hip, bustling atmosphere. On our corner in the East Village, Chef Marc Meyer brings his thoughtful approach to the bold, complex flavors of Mexico — a cuisine he has long admired and explored extensively. From grinding fresh masa to cooking on a comal, Rosie’s celebrates time-honored techniques while keeping the food bright, approachable, and full of energy. Our hospitality team works alongside the kitchen to deliver an experience where vibrant flavors are matched by attentive, warm, and energetic service.
Rosie’s is part of The Bowery Group (Cookshop, Shuka, Shukette, Vic’s), a group of restaurants recognized with accolades including James Beard nominations, New York Times “Top 10 New Restaurants of 2021,” and numerous features in leading publications. Across our group, we are committed to supporting small farms, highlighting seasonal produce, and bringing guests honest, respectfully produced cuisine at peak freshness.
