Server Assistant - Braven

Let’s be clear — this is not your father’s steakhouse. Granted, there is no shortage of shrimp cocktail, wedge salad or creamed spinach. But Braven, led by Canada’s award-winning Chef Anthony Walsh, is a new breed of steakhouse — a force to be reckoned with. Merging unfussy, old-school sensibilities with modern grace and style, Chef Walsh and his brigade of cooks are committed to preparing each dish to perfection.
