About Petit Trois

Petit Trois Le Valley opened its doors in 2018 in Sherman Oaks. This second, more spacious

location is intended to feel like a lavish French Brasserie, including a gorgeous bar, banquet lined dining room, Chef’s counter in front of the open kitchen, and a second dining room which can be reserved for larger parties and private Events.

The Role

Hospitality at Petit Trois is built on a foundation of teamwork. It is essential that the entire team works closely together and is aligned on creating memorable experiences for everyone they encounter, from guests, to fellow employees, to vendors, as well as the community.  In this tight knit ecosystem, Servers are responsible for demonstrating a level of excellence in both food & beverage knowledge and all technical aspects of service, while working in conjunction with the Support Staff, Managers, and Back of House team; communicating effectively in order to facilitate a seamless guest experience.
