Job Description


The team from Golden Diner is seeking an experienced sommelier
Opening February 2025, we’re seeking experienced servers to join our team for an exciting dual-concept project. Two distinct yet complementary dining experiences will be brought under one roof: Golden HOF and NY Kimchi.

About NY Kimchi
NY Kimchi offers a modern raw bar and steakhouse experience with deep Korean influences. Our menu features high-quality American steak cuts, fresh crudo, and Korean-inspired flavors, complemented by an expertly curated wine list and creative cocktails. While the environment is sophisticated, it is not stuffy—we prioritize an engaging, enjoyable guest experience.
About Golden HOF
Golden HOF, NY Kimchi’s lively counterpart, is inspired by traditional Korean-style HOF bars. With casual pub vibes and a modern twist, it features an array of shareable dishes, soju, craft beers, and original cocktails. While the sommelier’s primary focus is NY Kimchi, awareness of Golden HOF’s offerings will be essential for a cohesive guest experience.
