LINE COOKS should have at least one year full-service restaurant experience. We are looking for someone who is dedicated to the level of culinary excellence that we are striving to achieve.

Full open availability is essential to receiving a full-time schedule, and right now candidates must be available for SAT and SUN. No exceptions.  We are looking for candidates who want to move up, as we will need LEAD LINE COOKS and JUNIOR SOUS CHEFS in the summer, and prefer to promote from within.
