EUNOIA – SEEKING GENERAL MANAGER TO LEAD OPENING TEAM

Eunoia is a new restaurant opening soon in the heart of NoMa, Washington, D.C., led by Executive Chef Josa Maldonado . With a vision rooted in thoughtful creativity, seasonality, and hospitality with intention, Eunoia will be a reflection of years spent working in some of the world’s most acclaimed kitchens — including the Michelin-starred The French Laundry .

We're building something special from the ground up — and we’re looking for a General Manager to help us bring it to life. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the culture, service philosophy, and guest experience of a restaurant from day one, alongside a team driven by purpose and excellence.

What we're looking for:

  • Minimum of 2 years of management experience in a fine dining environment

  • Background in Michelin-starred or critically acclaimed restaurants strongly preferred

  • An unwavering attention to detail and a genuine passion for creating unforgettable guest experiences

  • Strong leadership, communication, and team-building skills

  • Highly organized, solutions-oriented, and committed to high standards

  • A deep love for food and beverage, with a hunger to keep learning and evolving

  • Open availability, including weekends and holidays

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and mentor the front-of-house team through pre-opening and beyond

  • Maintain service standards, guest experience, and nightly execution

  • Cultivate a positive, growth-oriented team culture

  • Work closely with ownership and leadership to meet operational and financial goals

  • Oversee FOH labor, scheduling, and staff development

  • Manage all front-of-house ordering and inventory

  • Ensure the restaurant remains in pristine condition, both front and back of house

  • Contribute ideas and energy to help bring Eunoia’s vision to life

Why join Eunoia?
Because we’re not just opening a restaurant — we’re building a team and a philosophy around intentional hospitality. With Chef Josa Maldonado’s experience in Michelin-starred restaurants, including The French Laundry, Pujol (Mexico City), Jatak (Copenhagen), Eunoia is grounded in excellence and ready to raise the bar in D.C.’s dining scene.
