Host
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: Poised, warm, and gracious Hosts to be the welcoming faces of Babbo.

From managing reservations to warmly greeting regulars and first-time diners alike, you are essential to the flow of service and the lasting impression we leave.

- An hourly rate of $18 - 26
- 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
