Job Details
We’re hiring for prep cooks at Dame. 

Focused around the freshest product available, English cooking techniques, and a farmers market approach to seasonality, Dame is a casual, 20-seat seafood restaurant, that has won local and national recognition for it's food, service & staff environment.

We’re a very small team, run by young owners, and as such are only hiring prep cooks with experience. Everyone in the kitchen will be at or above the sous chef level, and there will be lots of room for growth in our company. It's a 2 person line and an open kitchen, so everything is very intimate. During the daytime, prep involves fish butchery, pastry, sauce making, and organising a small space (eg/ putting away deliveries).

At nightime, the sound track is loud, everyone is excited to be there, and it's a very fun place to cook, but everyone is expected to work hard and with a positivie attitude. Your input on dish development, operational systems, and service flow will be encouraged, and your development supported.


Dame is open for dinner Monday to Saturday. We are searching for prep cooks available to work 4-5 days a week.

Dame is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
