  • Step in wherever the kitchen needs you

What we're looking for

  • Strong line cook skills and comfortable expediting in a fast-paced kitchen
  • Experience with ordering, receiving and inventory
  • Very organized and dependable, with good follow-through

  • Can stand for long shifts and lift up to 50 lbs
