Job Details
John and Karen Shields' The Loyalist is expanding its BOH team. We're looking for an experienced prep cook for a full time position focusing on the production of one of America's most-lauded burgers. Duties include prep production, receiving orders for quality, putting away orders, and cross-training on stations. The Loyalist menu introduces French technique to a dynamic neighborhood restaurant. Our 80-seat dining room serves up to 300 guests in a service, so understanding of organization and time management is key. Our menu can change daily, so flexibility and a positive attitude are necessary to be successful in this position. 

Effective hourly rate with service charges will range from $20-22/hour. Company-subsidized health insurance is available to all full-time employees after 30 days of employment. This position is roughly 45 hours per week, with 401k program eligibility after one year. Ideal schedule is 8am-5pm Tuesday through Saturday, though we do have flexibility on end time for candidates who have multiple jobs.

Part of SMYTH // THE LOYALIST

At this dual-concept West Loop kitchen, chef–power couple John Shields and Karen Urie Shields (ex Charlie Trotter’s) serve creative New American fare in two distinct settings and formats. The more casual The Loyalist features seasonal plates and craft cocktails in lounge surrounds on the lower level, while the upscale Smyth takes a fine-dining approach with adventurous tasting menus upstairs.
