Full job description
Our Michelin-starred restaurant group is seeking an experienced Lead Bartender for our 50-seat fine dining restaurant, Koshu Club.
Koshu Club is a Japanese inspired steak restaurant led by James Beard finalist and Michelin starred Executive Chef J. Trent Harris. Our menu highlights exceptional cuts of Japanese and American wagyu beef alongside pristine seafood. The meal is complemented by a deeply curated selection of wine and sake. With its intimate setting, Koshu Club invites guests to settle in for an evening that is both sophisticated and transportive.
