We tend to not care about cover letters, or even resumes for that matter. If you turn in a resume, it may help, but only put jobs that are pertinent to working in a restaurant or dealing with the public. We don't care if you worked construction, were a garbage man, or were a yoga teacher.....it has no relevance to the restaurant. We are looking for jobs that were fast paced, require you to be on your feet, and handle stress well. I am a restaurant manager, so you’re in luck.

Restaurants have always been less formal about resumes and cover letters. Even the most expensive restaurants often do all their hiring face-to-face with no paperwork. The boss knows exactly what he is looking for. Skip the cover letter. Walk in the door at the places that interest you. Someone will need your skills. Under-do it.
