STARR Restaurants and James Beard Award–winning Chef Mark Ladner have reimagined Babbo — a storied Italian institution that helped define New York’s dining landscape.

Chef Ladner’s return brings a fresh perspective to the iconic restaurant, with a reimagined menu rooted in Italy’s rich regional traditions.

The program is celebrated for its remarkable depth, featuring iconic producers from across Italy alongside thoughtful, discovery-driven selections and under-the-radar gems. For a Sommelier, Babbo offers the opportunity to work within a wine program that is not only highly acclaimed, but deeply focused on the breadth, diversity, and character of Italian wine.

If you are a passionate and knowledgeable Sommelier who thrives on creating memorable guest experiences through thoughtful wine pairings and warm, personalized service, this role is for you!

This position offers a comprehensive package including:
  • An hourly rate of $11.35 + 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
  • The opportunity for career advancement and professional growth

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
