Job Details
Host/Hostess
2026-02-05 Out to Lunch Restaurant Group Boise,ID
Description:
Acero represents a fresh and innovative addition to the Out To Lunch Restaurant Concepts family (formerly Fins Restaurant Group), a group of brands dedicated to the belief that savoring delectable cuisine and creating memorable experiences are at the heart of a fulfilling life. Our passion for delightful food and vibrant atmospheres is ingrained in our DNA, and we relish in sharing enjoyable moments with our valued guests. If you're seeking an exciting career opportunity, consider joining our team at Acero.
What you'll do:
We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
In 2011, we had a vision of a restaurant that offered fresh, bold seafood. Our vision was somewhat new to the Idaho food business (seafood and sushi in the land of potatoes, whaaaa?!), but we combined our collective culinary experience then rallied our most trusted friends and colleagues to make a lifelong dream come true. And voilà! The first Lucky Fins was founded in Meridian, Idaho.
After opening a third Lucky Fins in Downtown Boise in 2013, we felt there was more to aspire to within our brand. As a company who truly values feedback, we recognized one primary remark: guests loved the restaurant but had certain friends or family who were not fans of sushi or seafood. This was a great opportunity for our chefs to demonstrate culinary skills developed while training in the South and on the East Coast. The team began experimenting with creative, non-seafood dishes and dropping these dishes off at the diners' tables for feedback. From smoked ribs to Southern-style Nashville Fried Chicken, the response was overwhelmingly positive.
For our fourth location in Littleton, Colorado, we couldn't consider this another "Lucky Fins" restaurant - because menus provided dishes that other locations didn't offer. So, we got creative. That is when six Smokin' Fins locations were born - in the Denver area, Idaho Falls, Idaho, and Chandler, Arizona (near Phoenix).
Acero is our latest venture. An upscale yet approachable dining experience in downtown Boise that boasts beautiful bruschetta boards, creative charcuterie boards, and a unique wine selection, Acero is a truly unique dining experience. Located in the heart of the Grove, Acero is a wonderful place to meet friends for a casual cocktail, enjoy a variety of shareable small plates, and even indulge in a little sweet treat. From boards, to flatbreads, to pasta, Acero provides quality food with a beautiful aesthetic.
Our roots may be in seafood, but we've ventured out into many different concepts. We love great food, and we're passionate about sharing that with our local communities.
