Job Details
 
We are seeking experienced line cooks to join our growing team. We are a team of professionals that take our work seriously but also don’t take ourselves too seriously. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn and gain experience in multiple concepts from gourmet tacos, hand-made pastas, sauce work, and anything else our team wants to learn. We are big on mentoring and coaching, and we invest heavily in the growth of our team while fostering a positive and healthy work culture.

We've just opened our latest concept, Donna's, which is an Italian American restaurant that is big on scratch cooking. If you want to work with a strong, tight crew that is big on building and teaching, then we are the team for you. Eater just did a great write-up about us: https://la.eater.com/2023/7/5/23760081/donnas-restaurant-opening-echo-park-bar-flores-lowboy-classic-italian-los-angeles

We are also hiring for our other two concepts: Lowboy and Bar Flores. Lowboy offers smash burgers, hand cut fries, and other bar favorites. We also operate Bar Flores, our sister bar, which features a Mexican-inspired menu with tacos, ceviches, and other food items.

Ideal candidates must demonstrate the ability to operate multiple stations proficiently at once, work independently, and follow systems. We are looking for somebody who takes initiative, possesses a positive and respectful attitude, and enjoys taking part in a well-run operation with a team that takes pride in the work they do.
