    Job Description

    Full-Time or Part-Time Prep Cook – The Foundation of Every Great Meal

    Behind every incredible dining experience is a great prep cook.

    At our busy shoreline restaurant, our Prep Cooks are the backbone of the kitchen. Your work sets the pace for every service, supports the entire culinary team, and ensures every dish that leaves the kitchen meets our high standards. If you take pride in your work, enjoy staying busy, and know that preparation is the key to success, we want you on our team.

    What You'll Do

    • Prepare fresh ingredients with precision, consistency, and care.
    • Wash, chop, portion, and organize vegetables, meats, seafood, and other ingredients.
    • Prepare sauces, dressings, soups, and other recipes according to our standards.
    • Keep the kitchen stocked, organized, and ready for busy lunch and dinner services.
    • Rotate inventory and ensure proper food storage and labeling.
    • Maintain a clean, safe, and sanitary work environment.
    • Work closely with our line cooks and chefs to keep service running smoothly.

    What We're Looking For

    • A strong work ethic and a positive attitude.
    • Pride in producing quality work every day.
    • The ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced kitchen.
    • Excellent organizational and time-management skills.
    • Dependability—you show up ready to work and support your team.
    • Previous kitchen or prep experience is a plus, but we're willing to train someone with the right attitude and desire to learn.

    Why You'll Love Working Here

    • Full-time, year-round opportunity.
    • Competitive pay based on experience.
    • A supportive kitchen team that values hard work and respect.
    • Employee dining discounts.
    • Opportunities to learn new skills and advance into line cook or other culinary positions.
    • A fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.

    If you're someone who believes every great meal starts long before the first ticket is printed, this is the role for you. Join a team that values craftsmanship, teamwork, and taking pride in every plate that leaves the kitchen.

    When you're a Prep Cook here, you're not just preparing ingredients—you're helping create every great dining experience our guests remember.
