About this position

Restaurant Manager — Nights

Martin’s Tavern | Georgetown | Washington, DC

For more than 90 years, Martin’s Tavern has been part of the Washington restaurant community. Since 1933, we’ve welcomed neighborhood regulars, generations of families, visitors from around the world, and many of the people who have shaped the city’s and the country’s history.

We’re looking for a Restaurant Manager to lead evening service, with hospitality and excellent guest service at the center of everything they do.

The heart of this role is making sure every guest feels welcomed, cared for, and eager to return. That takes an engaged manager who enjoys being on the floor, builds relationships with guests, and helps the team deliver attentive, thoughtful, consistent service throughout the night.

You’ll set the tone for the dining room: greeting guests, supporting staff, anticipating needs, keeping service running smoothly, and handling concerns with warmth and good judgment. Coaching the team to deliver excellent hospitality is as important as delivering it yourself.

You’ll work closely with our General Manager and ownership to help lead one of Washington’s best-known independent restaurants. We value humility, consistency, accountability, and a sincere commitment to taking care of people.

This is a nighttime management position. Availability for evening and closing shifts, including weekends, is essential.

What we’re looking for
  • Restaurant management or strong front-of-house leadership experience

  • A clear understanding that excellent food, service, and hospitality together create a great dining experience

  • An active presence on the floor and a hands-on approach to leadership

  • Strong guest relations skills and the ability to make both regulars and first-time visitors feel at home

  • Someone who leads by example, coaches staff, and holds the team to high service standards

  • A calm, confident presence during busy evening services

  • Good judgment, clear communication, and the ability to resolve concerns graciously

  • High standards without a big ego

  • A genuine love of restaurants and taking care of people

What you’ll find here
  • A respected, family-owned restaurant with nearly a century of history

  • A loyal guest following and many long-tenured employees

  • Actively involved ownership that cares about the restaurant and its people

  • An opportunity to shape the guest experience and strengthen our service culture

  • Competitive compensation, bonus opportunity, paid vacation, health benefits, and dining privileges

If you take pride in leading a dining room where guests feel welcome and excellent service is a shared commitment, we’d love to meet you.

Please send your resume along with a brief note telling us why Martin’s Tavern interests you.
