Server

Southern Kitchen Restaurant
Richmond, VA Full Time | Part Time
POSTED ON 4/3/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/29/2026

At Southern Kitchen, we believe:

“If it is to be, it’s up to me.”

That means every guest experience, every table touch, and every moment of hospitality starts with personal ownership.

We are looking for servers who don’t just carry plates — they carry responsibility for the energy, warmth, and flow of the dining room.

If you believe great service isn’t accidental… it’s intentional, we want you on our team.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

You are successful here when:

  • Guests ask for you by name.
  • Your tables feel seen, not processed.
  • You anticipate needs before guests have to ask.
  • The dining room runs smoother because you’re in it.
  • You take responsibility for mistakes and fix them fast.
  • You elevate the experience — not just deliver it.

At Southern Kitchen, serving is leadership without a title.

Your Impact

Ownership of the Guest Experience

You greet every guest with warmth and confidence. You guide them through the menu — from shrimp and grits to blackened catfish — helping them feel excited about their choices.

You don’t wait for problems. You prevent them.

You understand that hospitality is about how people feel when they leave.

Ownership of Standards

You take pride in accuracy, presentation, and timing. Orders are correct. Tables are clean. Payments are handled professionally.

You protect food safety and cleanliness because details matter.

Ownership of Team Energy

You support your teammates during rushes. You communicate clearly with the kitchen. You help create a fast-paced but positive environment.

When it gets busy, you get better — not louder, not flustered.

Who Thrives Here

  • Self-starters who don’t need to be micromanaged
  • Individuals who take initiative instead of making excuses
  • Servers who see upselling as enhancing the guest experience
  • People who stay composed under pressure
  • Team players who understand their attitude affects the entire shift

Experience is helpful — but ownership mindset matters more.

Requirements

  • Strong communication and people skills
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment
  • Basic math skills for accurate payments
  • Flexible availability (nights, weekends, holidays)
  • Professional, dependable, and growth-oriented

What You’ll Gain

  • Flexible scheduling
  • Competitive tips
  • 401(k) retirement plan
  • Employee meal discounts
  • Real growth in hospitality leadership

At Southern Kitchen, we don’t just serve food.

We create experiences — and we take responsibility for them.

If it is to be, it’s up to me.

If that sounds like you, apply today and be part of what we’re building.
