Job description

A fantastic opportunity with a celebrated, award-winning independent all-day dining restaurant in Dubai's creative arts district - a chef-driven, boutique venue where food, warmth and personality matter as much as speed.
We are recruiting an experienced Waiter/Waitress to join a close-knit front-of-house team.
As the primary point of contact for guests, you will shape the dining experience from the first greeting to the final bill: reading the table, guiding menu choices, and making every guest feel welcome, important and relaxed.
This is a hands-on, high-touch service environment where attention to detail and genuine hospitality are noticed on every shift.
Responsibilities • Greet guests warmly, present menus, and guide them through the food and beverage offering.
• Take food and beverage orders, place them accurately with the kitchen, and make confident recommendations and specials suggestions.
• Deliver dishes to the correct seat numbers, introducing each dish and its main components with detail; check back on guest satisfaction.
• Stay current on the menu, specials and any item shortages, and handle special requests and guest allergies with care.
• Prepare and settle bills accurately, take payment and return correct change.
• Maintain mise en place, cleanliness and floor awareness throughout service - set, clear and reset the section seamlessly.
• Follow all food-safety and hygiene standards, and uphold grooming and presentation standards.
• Support colleagues, cover where service dictates, and help coach and train new joiners.
• Communicate guest feedback promptly to the manager to protect a positive, memorable experience.
• Salary: AED 5,000–6,500 per month (depending on experience), all-in (basic AED 3,000–3,900, plus housing and transport allowances).
• Eligible for service charge and gratuities, plus an incentive for achieving the highest guest reviews.
• Medical insurance, duty meal, and uniform provided.
• Annual flight allowance (single status).
• Further benefits to be confirmed during the recruitment process.
