Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises, Inc. (LEYE) is an independent, family-owned restaurant group based in Chicago that owns, manages and licenses more than 130 establishments in Illinois, Minnesota, Maryland, Nevada, California, Texas, Virginia and Washington D.C. We were founded in June 1971 by Richard Melman and Jerry A. Orzoff with the opening of R.J. Grunts and today, thanks to the creativity of our partners, we proudly service guests at more than 60 concepts ranging from fast casual to fine dining restaurants.

We’re proud to offer a Culture of Caring that encompasses a commitment to growth, inclusivity and training. This includes developing our people -- many leaders at Lettuce began their careers in entry-level positions in our restaurant – as well as welcoming seasoned professionals into the Lettuce family. We offer a competitive benefits package (we know that’s an important part of where you choose to work), because happy, healthy teams take better care of each other and their guests. If you share our passion for hospitality and you’re looking for an evolving, dynamic company – then take a look at Lettuce! We’d like to hear from you. EOE. E-Verify.
