About Us

Meimei’s is a contemporary Chinese bistro opening in the Lower East Side this December. We want to cook great food, build a strong team, and have fun while we work hard together.

• Work an assigned section, greeting, serving, and taking care of guests to our standards and values
• Understand and execute our style of hospitality - warm, enthusiastic, observant
• Complete daily opening and closing sideworks
• Calm and focus during service
• Clear communication and strong interpersonal skills with both your managers and fellow team members, as well as with guests
• A team-first mentality– supporting each other, helping across sections, and continuing to grow yourself
• Wine knowledge is preferred, along with an interest in and willingness to learn about cocktails, Chinese spirits, and Chinese tea culture. 

What You Bring

• 1+ years as a server in a full-service restaurant
• Organization and attention to details
• A strong sense of urgency
• A spirit of hospitality and understanding of steps of service
• Openness to feedback and real curiosity about hospitality, service, and beverages
• Availability for nights, weekends and our busiest days: October through late December, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day weekend, Chinese New Years and private events
• Ability to stand and walk for long shifts and lift up to 50 lbs

How We Work

• Same respect for everyone. Fellow servers, dishwashers, or cooks are treated with the same respect. While there will be intense moments, we strive to keep a calm head and keep these moments professional, not personal. 
• Hospitality is the standard. We strive to give our guests an experience that grounds them in the moment and leaves them feeling like they’ve been taken care of.
• Mistakes lead to growth. Honest mistakes get coaching, not punishment. The only real mistake is covering one up.
• Speak up. If something’s wrong, tell the manager or owner. You’ll never get in trouble for raising a concern in good faith.

What We Offer

• 5 days PTO (Paid Time Off) a year after 1 year of employment with the company
• Health insurance
• Daily family meal
• Dining discounts 
• Mentorship and cross-training across positions, with a clear path to advancement within the hospitality group.
