Job Details

  • Collaborate with leadership and the culinary team on menu execution and seasonal updates.
  • Lead by example on the line during peak shifts (Thursday–Monday from 12pm - 10pm).
  • Partner with the General Manager to ensure smooth communication between FOH and BOH.

Who You Are

  • 3–5+ years of kitchen leadership experience (fine-casual or full-service).
  • Proven ability to lead, train, and motivate a multicultural team.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and dependable in managing systems and standards.
  • Strong communicator—able to lead and train in Spanish a nd English.
  • Calm under pressure; leads from the line and models excellence.
  • Familiar with inventory, scheduling, and labor management tools.
  • DOH Food Safety Certificate required.
  • Experience with Indian flavors a big plus, but not required.
  • Why you’ll love working Here

  • Be part of redefining a neighborhood restaurant with a bold culinary vision.
  • Join a passionate, entrepreneurial team that values creativity, connection, and growth.
  • Competitive salary and bonus opportunities
  • Full benefits : health, dental, vision (75% company-paid), 401(k) with matching, commuter benefits.
  • Paid time off and holiday closures (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve / Day, New Year’s Day).
  • Staff meals and a supportive team culture where your work truly makes an impact.
  • Job Details
