About Old Gold

Old Gold is a neighborhood restaurant in East Hollywood with a focused menu of Sicilian-style pizza, seasonal vegetable-forward dishes, and a commitment to high-level execution in a relaxed, professional kitchen environment. We’re a small, dedicated team looking for cooks who value detail, cleanliness, and consistency.

Role Overview

As a Line / Prep Cook, you’ll be a key part of our daily operations—helping to prep, cook, and execute our menu to standard during service. You’ll work closely with the Sous Chef and CDC to maintain prep systems, keep the kitchen clean and organized, and deliver excellent food in a collaborative, team-oriented setting.

  • Communicate clearly and professionally with FOH and BOH staff.
  • Contribute to a respectful, low-drama kitchen culture.
  • Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Comfortable working busy services in a high-quality, tight kitchen.
  • Strong attention to cleanliness, organization, and food safety.
  • Knows basic kitchen math, understands prep yield and mise en place flow.

  • Able to lift 40–50 lbs regularly (e.g. produce crates, dough trays).
  • Able to work in hot and fast-paced environments during service.
  • Compensation & Perks

  • $20–$25 / hour, based on experience and performance
  • Daily staff meal
  • Dining discounts
  • Opportunity for advancement as we grow (e.g. line → lead line → sous)
  • Positive, supportive kitchen culture with no yelling or drama
