    About
    Welcome to the spot where culinary excellence meets high-energy hospitality — a restaurant where people come to eat, drink, vibe, and be seen. We’re all about bold flavors, buzzing ambiance, and unforgettable experiences.

    The Role
    We’re looking for a Sous Chef who’s equal parts culinary master, smart operator, and inspiring leader. You’ll be a key player in a high-volume, fast-moving kitchen — helping us deliver next-level food, mentor rising talent, and keep the engine running with sharp execution and style.

    What You’ll Do

    • Lead the line with presence, energy, and precision

    • Maintain exceptional standards of execution, presentation, and quality

    • Support ordering, inventory, scheduling, and food/labor cost controls with a sharp eye

    • Be a role model for culinary discipline and creative expression

    • Train and mentor a diverse BOH team — build skills, inspire passion, and grow leaders

    • Keep the vibe high and the pressure cool during fast-paced service

    • Collaborate with the Executive Chef on menu innovation and seasonal creativity

    • Live and breathe hospitality, even from behind the scenes

    Who You Are

    • A culinary pro with at least 2–3 years of experience as a Sous Chef

    • You’ve got a sharp financial sense — comfortable with inventory, ordering, and cost management

    • Detail-oriented with serious kitchen standards — but know how to keep things fun

    • A strong leader who mentors with patience, positivity, and purpose

    • Cool under pressure and quick on your feet

    • Passionate about food, people, and creating a culture of excellence

    • Hungry to grow, learn, and take your career to the next level

    What We Offer

    • Competitive salary + bonus opportunities

    • Health benefits, PTO, and perks

    • Endless room for growth in a fast-expanding, hospitality-forward group

    • Access to culinary development and leadership training
