Dear Guests

Lita operates with a unique team structure and business model. Every team member is fully cross trained and rotates between front-of-house and back-of-house positions on a weekly basis. This model prioritizes equity across the team by ensuring equal pay and eliminating the industry’s outdated FOH vs. BOH hierarchy. All of our team members are hospitality professionals. 

Creating change is never easy. We hope you’ll keep this in mind as you dine with us. We understand there will be bumps along the way, but we’re dedicated to paving the way—and providing you a unique dining experience.

xoxo,

Chef David Viana
