Job description:
Restaurant Manager – Notte Ristorante
Notte Ristorante is an upscale, modern Italian destination from our hospitality group, the team behind The Berczy Tavern and Pasta Privato. Located at 9 Church Street, Notte delivers a sophisticated, high-energy dining experience rooted in contemporary Italian culinary excellence and refined hospitality.
Located in the heart of the historic St. Lawrence Market neighborhood, our restaurant sits at the intersection of Old Town charm and modern culinary innovation. Steps away from the iconic market and the vibrant energy of Front Street, Notte Ristorante offers an elevated, polished dining room within one of Toronto's most storied culinary districts. We are seeking a dynamic, service-driven Restaurant Manager to partner with our General Manager and take full command of floor operations.

The Standard: Proactive Leadership
Our team operates with a proactive, never reactive, mindset. This is a leadership role for a professional who leads by example and is fully immersed in the flow of service. While you will operate as part of a tight-knit, two-person front-of-house management team alongside the General Manager, you must possess the autonomy, confidence, and operational command to run services completely on your own. We are looking for an "experience maker" who stays ahead of guest needs and operational requirements through direct action, presence, and anticipation. There is no room for passive management; you are expected to be the driving force on the dining room floor.

Role Overview

  • Location: 9 Church Street, Toronto, ON.
  • Compensation: $75,000 – $95,000 per annum. Base salary + gratuities.
  • Structure: Two-person FOH management team collaborating closely with the General Manager, with full autonomy to run solo management shifts depending on scheduling.
  • Hours & Workweek: Full-time, 40 to 50 hours per week. Shifts typically range from 8 to 10 hours per day depending on operational needs and service volume.
  • Schedule: 5 days per week. Full weekly open availability is required across Monday through Sunday to allow for rotated scheduling between managers. Expect regular shifts on Fridays and Saturdays; two consecutive days off are rotated Sunday through Thursday.
  • Reporting: Reports directly to the General Manager and Owners.

Key Responsibilities
Solo & Collaborative Floor Leadership

  • Take full ownership of service as the sole manager on duty when scheduled, running the floor end-to-end with minimal oversight.
  • Actively organize and direct service flow: assign and cut sections dynamically based on covers, balance table loads, and manage labor throughout the shift.
  • Mediate guest and operational challenges calmly and effectively in real time, making decisive calls under pressure.
  • Delegate tasks clearly to the floor and support staff, maintaining accountability from pre-shift lineup to post-service closing.
  • Partner seamlessly with the General Manager on dual-coverage shifts to divide and conquer high-volume services.
  • Oversee daily opening and closing operational checklists, cash handling, shift reports, and facility readiness across 8 to 10-hour shifts.

Service Excellence & Hospitality

  • Act as an essential "experience maker" on the floor, focusing on genuine guest connection, hospitality standards, and relationship building.
  • Anticipate guest and operational needs before they arise, ensuring an elevated standard of service from greeting to departure.
  • Collaborate closely with the culinary, bar, and sommelier teams to maintain fluid communication between front and back of house.

Staff Coaching & Culture

  • Train, mentor, and motivate floor staff, reinforcing dining room etiquette, sequence of service, and product knowledge across food and beverage.
  • Foster a collaborative, professional culture committed to precision and hospitality.

About the Group
Notte Ristorante is a cornerstone of our hospitality group, which owns and operates three of Toronto’s most distinct culinary destinations: The Berczy Tavern, Notte Ristorante, and Pasta Privato.
Our group is defined by a commitment to high-standard hospitality, operational excellence, and a "lead from the front" philosophy. The Berczy Tavern serves as a cornerstone of refined, classic tavern dining, while Notte Ristorante offers a sophisticated, modern Italian experience at 9 Church Street, alongside Pasta Privato, our intimate 30-seat pasta tasting room. We pride ourselves on being proactive operators who value technical expertise, hospitality, and an unwavering dedication to the guest experience.

How To Apply
Please submit your CV and a brief cover letter through Indeed highlighting your fine dining room management experience and track record of running service independently.

Notice: Applications are accepted exclusively through Indeed. In-person drop-offs, phone calls, and direct emails will not be reviewed.
