A combination of server and busser in an casual-formal restaurant, serving regional American cuisine, with a focus on local sourcing.

Much of the duties involved are the same as a busser in a lower-tier restaurant. Sou' Wester requires that you have more customer interaction however, and more knowledge of food and wine. Prior dining service is a requirement. Training manuals are given out, and you're required to take tests on your food and wine knowledge after some time to study them and get used to the restaurant.

The restaurant was given 2.5 stars in the Washingtonian magazine's 'Top 100 Restaurants in Washington DC', and the restaurant itself ranked #69.

-Pay

Fluctuates according to business, tips, and any extra days worked. Hourly wage to start is $7.10. Jumps to $8.10 after six months.
