About us
Market Venice is a modern Italian restaurant on Market Street, a block from the boardwalk. We serve aperitivo-style small plates and house-made pastas in a busy, high-energy room. We’re part of a growing Los Angeles restaurant group, so there’s real room to move up as we open new restaurants.
The role
We’re looking for a hot line cook who can own a high-volume pasta station and cook over live fire with confidence. You’ll cook fresh pasta to order, finish sauces à la minute and work the wood-fired grill through packed dinner services.
What you’ll do
- Run the pasta station on busy nights: cook pasta to order, build sauces and plate to spec
- Cook proteins and vegetables over live fire, and build and manage the fire through the night
- Help make fresh pasta and handle station prep, mise en place and par levels
- Keep your station clean, organized and up to LA County health code
- Work with the chefs on specials and seasonal changes
What you bring
- 2+ years on the hot line in a busy, chef-driven kitchen
- Experience on a high-volume pasta station
- Wood-fired grill or open-fire cooking experience
- Speed, consistency and good timing during a rush
- A positive attitude and a team-first mindset
- California Food Handler card, or able to get one within 30 days
- Available nights, weekends and holidays
