Server Assistant at Mamani

Mamani, the newest restaurant from the Dallas-based hospitality group FLHO, features French cuisine with an Italian accent from Executive Chef Christophe De Lellis. The cooking is at once approachable, celebrates simplicity, clarity of flavor, and the excellence of the ingredients. The founders drew inspiration for the project from their French-born grandmother, whom they fondly call “Mamani.” Paris-born chef De Lellis brings inspiration from his food-loving grandparents as well; all four are Italian. Mamani is the flagship restaurant for the new Quad development in Uptown. 

We are dedicated to offering opportunities to learn, grow, and develop as we build our team, which is focused on genuine hospitality, teamwork, and mutual support.
