About
A culinary-forward, high-energy restaurant where the kitchen is the heartbeat of the experience. Focused on bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and true hospitality, our team doesn’t just cook — we lead, we train, and we create. We’re building something special, and we’re looking for a chef who brings passion, and precision.

The Role
We’re seeking a hands-on Executive Chef to lead a high-volume, chef-driven kitchen with excellence. You must be just as comfortable managing financials as you are cooking proteins. You’ll mentor a skilled team, uphold exceptional standards, and bring high-pressure service to life — every shift, every plate.

  • Oversee high-volume execution while maintaining exacting culinary standards

  • Execute seasonal, chef-driven menus that showcase creativity and technique

  • Hire, train, and mentor a professional kitchen team — lead by example

  • Manage food costs, labor, and inventory with sharp financial acumen

  • Ensure all kitchen operations meet health, safety, and sanitation standards

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with front-of-house leadership for seamless service

  • Foster a culture of passion, accountability, and respect

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience as an Executive Chef or Chef de Cuisine in a high-volume, chef-driven environment

  • Exceptional culinary skills, with a strong sense of flavor, plating, and execution

  • Demonstrated experience managing financials: COGS, labor, P&L responsibility

  • A natural leader who develops people and thrives on building strong teams

  • Composure and clarity under pressure — you lead the kitchen when it’s loud, fast, and intense

  • A passion for the craft — you love food, service, and the energy of the kitchen

  • High standards, strong systems, and unshakable professionalism

Offerings

  • Competitive salary + performance-based bonuses

  • Full benefits package (health, dental, vision, PTO, 401k)

  • A company that values culture, creativity, and growth
