Bartender/server

The Harbor Club At Westedge
Charleston
08.2020 - 02.2022

Overall responsibilities consisted of quick and efficient service to all members and guests for the best experience possible. as a server I cater by greetings my guests and having the dinner table set and ready for dinner. Once everyone is seated, I quickly take an appetizer and drink order. I make sure everything is flowing well to not rush the guests but also have everything organized. My main goal is to make sure I have things ready for the guest before he can request it. Bartending behind the bar is usually quicker pace. I make sure to have a few drink orders in then make them all at once. my main goal as a bartender is to have everything organized for a server since I also make drinks for the tables around the restaurant. Having a positive and fun environment around the bar is most important! Here are a few key points I consider important as a FOH member in any restaurant setting.

  • Worked closely with team members to deliver the best dinning requirements, develop solutions and work as a team.
  • Provided excellent service and attention to customers.
  • Demonstrated leadership by making improvements to work processes and helping to train others.

Bartender

Bear Lake Reserve
Tuckasegee, NC
06.2019 - 01.2020

most fine dinning jobs in my hometown are seasonal. At this point I was a returning Bearlake employee. Now being of age I could start my shift from serving to bartending. I had to learn everything on the spot, which took some time but overall i have a great understanding of beer and wine sale and presentation. As well as a list of cocktails using well known spirits to upsell customers. Also making sure I supported servers by preparing specialty drinks for patrons in all areas of the restaurant. Another Vidal step in our bartender responsibilities was making sure we optimize bar inventory and storage to effectively meet expected business levels with adequate stock of alcohol, soft drinks and other supplies. As an experienced employee now I added an additional hand on working with management to plan and implement special events to boost customer numbers and profits. This helped build a great team with outstanding communication between staff and management! Overall, Bearlake was a great learning experience!
