La Popular Taqueria in Port Adelaide has been awarded a Bib Gourmand in the MICHELIN Guide South Australia 2027, making us the first Mexican restaurant in Australia to receive one. We're now looking for an experienced casual Front of House team member to join us.

We're not your average Mexican restaurant. Everything is made from scratch. We nixtamalise Australian corn in-house every week, stone-grind it, and press our tortillas to order. We're the only restaurant in South Australia certified for authentic Mexican gastronomy with the Sello M, awarded by the Mexican Government.

We want someone who's genuinely into food and drinks, someone curious about where it comes from and excited to share that with our guests. This is a place to learn about real Mexican cooking, not just carry plates.

About you

- Previous front of house experience (required)
- Confident with table service
- Able to multitask and work independently, including running the floor on your own
- Happy to lend a hand in other sections of the restaurant when needed
- Current RSA (required), RP badge (highly regarded)




- Knowledge of traditional Mexican food and drinks (very helpful)
- Friendly, positive and eager to learn

What we offer

- Casual position, minimum 4 shifts per week
- Shifts Tuesday to Saturday 5pm to 10pm, plus Saturday lunch
- $34.96 per hour, $41.96 per hour on Saturdays, plus superannuation
- A small, passionate team at a Michelin-recognised restaurant
- The chance to learn traditional Mexican food and drinks from the people who make it
- The best tacos in Australia

To apply, submit your resume and a short note telling us about yourself, your hospitality experience, and what you love about food.
