Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Responsible for the initial greeting and seating of guests, managing phone calls, and taking reservations. Acts as the first and last point of contact to ensure a positive guest experience.
Requires a professional, upbeat attitude and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment. Must be capable of providing energetic service and prioritizing guest needs.
Our Hosts are responsible for the initial greeting and seating of Guests, answering phones, taking reservations, maintaining an accurate wait when necessary and bidding farewell to all Guests. They are the first and last impression of Maggiano’s to our Guests. What do you think? Sound like your cup of espresso? Around here we say our purpose is to bring people together to celebrate the love of family and friends. If it sounds like we have our own way of looking at the world, you're right! We call it The Maggiano's Way, and it means odds are you get us and we want to meet you… now!
We’re The Original OriginatorOnce upon a long time ago, going out to eat meant either a fancy, pricey, fussy restaurant, or a fast food drive-thru meal handed to you in a greasy paper sack. Our namesake, Norman Brinker, changed all that by pioneering the idea of “casual dining”. And he knew an original when he found it. Guests in Chicago knew Maggiano’s Little Italy was special when we opened our doors on the corner of Clark and Grand. Today, thousands of restaurants later, Brinker International is the name behind good food, good times and great places to work. And Maggiano’s is our own little slice of Italian American tradition come to life! Tony Soprano would be so proud.
Working With Us Comes With An Extra Helping Of Helping OutHalf the fun of making it in life is being able to share it. So part of our way of life is helping make the dreams of others come true, through the special events we host and special memories we help create. We’ve hosted our fair share of weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, birthdays and baby showers. There’s nothing better than helping create lasting memories in our restaurants and in our community. It’s one of the reasons we support the Make-A-Wish Foundation, making wishes come true for kids with life threatening medical conditions. On the local level, we support the North Texas Food Bank, and because we also have a heart for our own, making small contributions to the Brinker Family Fund adds up in a big way and helps out our own in times of need.
Biscotti Is Just A Hard Cookie, Until You Dip It In EspressoThere’s nothing better than enjoying life to the fullest, and every now again, we need a little indulgence for working so hard in this fast-paced world. We know we ask a lot of our people. Long days, lots of energetic service, staying upbeat, putting everyone else ahead of ourselves, hoisting heavy plates of Mom’s Lasagna! So what’s in it for you? We’re glad you asked –
So, whether you're a Maitre D’, Server, Foodrunner, Busser, Carry Out and Delivery Supervisor, Host/Hostess or a Bartender serving up drinks like the days of the Rat Pack, this team of fast-paced professionals welcome our Guests into our restaurants to break bread together and celebrate the richness of life. The number one goal of this team is to make our Guests feel special, and they are remarkable at what they do. Marinara sauce on your sleeve is just an added perk.
Brinker International is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer, committed to workplace diversity, workplace working and workplace fun. The way we see it, life is short, so you might as well work happy.
Our mission is to make every guest feel special
Even with excellent people, you cannot build the best restaurant company overnight. We've chosen to follow a sensible, well-managed and well-paced growth plan that will allow us to have a strong, long-term presence in every major U.S. metropolitan market from coast to coast. Maggiano's Little Italy® truly is a very special group of restaurants. Technically, we're a "chain," but in principle, we're more like an extended family. Each restaurant is similar in menu and philosophy but is built to reflect the history of its host city. Inside, high-energy, full-service dining rooms reminiscent of pre-war Little Italy, elegant banquet facilities and customer-friendly carryout leave no doubt you're visiting an authentic Maggiano's restaurant. When we talk about our culture, we talk about our people and our food in equal doses with a healthy addition of passion. It's a recipe that has yielded great results. We've become a place where people find a permanent home. From entry-level employees to the most senior of our staff, our people call Maggiano's "family." This may explain why we have one of the lowest turnover rates in the industry. Our passion for people, food and service unites us all. Our common goal is to build Maggiano's into the best Southern Italian Restaurant Company. Not the biggest, just the best. How will we do it? By providing the tools our people need to be successful and, more importantly, by providing personalized time and support to each individual.
