About The Position

This restaurant that was built on the cornerstone of authentic American comfort, served up one cheese-strewn noodle at a time in a hot dish that bubbles up a chorus of a thousand Michigan memories. OK, we're getting a little out of hand there; but when it comes to mac & cheese, digging deep comes naturally to us. Why? Because it's the stuff of legend. It's that rare combination of the totally expected and the happily surprised. And it's what you'll find at an 1840's church on Main Street in Clarkston, Michigan. Please make yourself at home. Position Summary Be friendly, outgoing, and possess good communication skills. Position responsible for ensuring guests’ enjoyment. You should be organized, able to think and act quickly and effectively while retaining self-composure. Be guest sensitive and possess a sense of timing.
