Job Details
Kitchen Overview

We are excited to invite passionate culinary professionals to join our back-of-house family for an elevated Mediterranean-inspired American steakhouse concept. Our kitchen operates strictly for dinner service only and is closed every Monday, ensuring our team enjoys dedicated, predictable time off.


Our culinary philosophy centers on 100% scratch preparation, thoughtfully sourcing prime cut meats, fresh coastal seafood, and seasonal Mediterranean produce. Powered by a modern Kitchen Display System (KDS) for smooth and organized communication, we pride ourselves on precision, cleanliness, and high standards within a supportive, growth-oriented environment where our Executive Chef actively mentors team members and loves to promote from within.


Note: Weekend (Friday–Sunday) and holiday availability is required for all positions.

Dishwasher / Porter / Stocker

The Porter & Dishwasher team ensures our kitchen operations run cleanly, safely, and seamlessly. This position includes equipment sanitation, facility maintenance, and assisting with stock receiving.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Operating and maintaining commercial dishwashing machinery and pot-washing stations.
  • Washing, sanitizing, and returning glassware, flatware, fine china, and kitchen cookware to designated areas.
  • Assisting with receiving, stocking, and organizing food and beverage deliveries (lifting up to 50 lbs).
  • Removing kitchen trash, compost, and recycling throughout and after dinner service.
  • Sweeping, mopping, and deep-cleaning kitchen surfaces, walk-ins, and floor drains.

Qualifications:

  • Previous restaurant utility, porter, or dishwasher experience preferred, but entry-level applicants with a strong work ethic are encouraged to apply.
  • Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, wet, and high-energy environment.
  • Reliable transportation and punctual attendance for scheduled shifts.
