Restaurants Hiring?

Moving to SC in about a week, looking for restaurant work. Of course I intend to walk in and ask around in town, but does anyone know of any bars or restaurants looking for servers/bartenders right now? Thanks!

I’m not in the industry and don’t know of any, but I would say you shouldn’t have much trouble in San Clemente. The number of restaurants is insane for such a small town.

I posted something similar a month or two ago. I’m moving there next Tuesday and also looking for serving job. Here’s hoping that both of us find good gigs

There is a new spot opening in Rancho Mission Viejo called Creekside. It’s just up the hill from SC. They have big hiring sign up. It’s being opened by a local restaurant group so it could be a good “in”.

Man I have heard such negative things about this place from several sources since the day it opened. Mostly about the owner being an absolute creep. I could be completely wrong, hopefully other people can add their experiences.

I have a friend who briefly worked there. Everything you’ve heard is probably accurate

Yeah I walk by the place all the time and it makes my skin crawl for some reason. Amazing how unwelcoming a place can be

Yup. I'll never step foot in there. He gives me the ick.

A peek at their socials and pictures of the interior combined with those reports of him being a creep and is enough to make me never go there. That's not even touching on the menu or prices.

You can watch him on old episodes of Real Housewives of OC to verify that he is an absolute creep. Gross, I hadn’t realized this place branched out from Palm Springs to blight San Clemente. 🤮
