Host/Hostess

Whim Hospitality • Dripping Springs, TX

1d • $15 • Onsite

About The Position

Housed in a 19th-century Vietnamese town hall reborn under Texas skies, Tillie’s is where globally inspired flavors meet Hill Country soul. Here, every meal begins with a first impression—a warm smile, a perfectly set table, and the quiet promise that tonight’s dinner will be a story guests retell for years. As our Host/Hostess, you’re not just seating guests—you’re orchestrating the first scene of their culinary journey. You’ll set the tone for evenings where laughter mingles with clinking glasses, and every “Good evening!” feels like an invitation to something extraordinary. Think of yourself as the opening note of a symphony—a smile that says, “Your adventure starts here.”

Requirements

• A people magnet with a knack for reading a room—you sense the couple craving privacy and the family ready for a feast.
• Detail-obsessed organizer: You juggle reservations like a pro, but your superpower is making guests feel like they’re your only priority.
• TABC & Food Handler certified (or eager to learn)—these are your keys to the kingdom.
• Weekend warrior: Thrive in the buzz of brunch crowds, sunset diners, and moonlit dessert seekers.

Responsibilities

• Greet guests like old friends, whether they’re celebrating an anniversary or craving Tillie’s famous shrimp and grits.
• Master the art of table flow, balancing romantic corner booths with lively group tables under our vaulted timber ceilings.
• Share tidbits about our history (“Did you know this building sailed from Vietnam?”) or the chef’s latest Hill Country harvest special.
• Sync with servers and kitchen crews to ensure the rhythm of the dining room feels effortless, even on a packed Saturday night.

Benefits

• Competitive hourly wage + tips (your smile earns its keep!).
• Family meals with Tillie’s famed dishes + discounts on stays in our historic cottages.
• A path to Lead Host or Management—your career, your script.
• Medical/dental/vision, PTO, and paid holidays to recharge under the stars.
