STARR Restaurants and James Beard Award–winning Chef Mark Ladner are reimagining Babbo — a storied Italian institution that helped define New York’s dining landscape — with a bold new chapter debuting this Fall.

Chef Ladner’s return to the very kitchen where his culinary journey began is nothing short of momentous. Building on his celebrated work at Lupa and Del Posto — where he earned two Michelin stars and a four-star New York Times review — his reimagined menu will honor Italy’s rich regional traditions through his unique and visionary lens. This is paired with a world-class wine program featuring benchmark producers and rare, cellar-worthy gems.

We’re seeking passionate culinary and hospitality professionals ready to help lead this extraordinary next chapter.

Now Hiring: Passionate and knowledgeable Sommeliers who thrive on creating memorable guest experiences through thoughtful wine pairings and warm, personalized service. This role is perfect for someone who is eager to guide guests through the rich landscape of Italian wine while supporting an elevated yet approachable dining experience.

This position offers a comprehensive package including:
  • An hourly rate of $11 + tips
  • Paid Vacation and Sick Time
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits Coverage
  • Commuter Benefit Program 
  • Referral Bonus Programs 
  • Dining Discounts at over 25 Affiliated STARR Restaurants
  • Professional development opportunities, including the STARR Wine & Beverage Scholarship Program

Qualifications:

  • 2+ years of experience working with a quality-focused beverage program
  • Deep knowledge of European and American wines, with a strong emphasis on Italy
  • Knowledge of spirits, cocktail development, and modern mixology techniques
  • Familiarity with POS systems, inventory systems, CTUIT, OpenTable/Resy
  • Wine certification such as WSET, SWE, or CMS desired 
  • A collaborative, team-oriented mindset with a desire for continuous learning and growth
