Restaurant Team Member - Cook

$10 per hour

Noodles & Company

Noodles And Company Team Member

At Noodles and Company, our mission is to nourish and inspire every team member, guest, and community we serve. We are hiring Team Members to join our back-of-house kitchen crew as cooks and line cooks who prepare fresh ingredients, cook dishes to order, and help keep our kitchens running smoothly and consistently.

We know noodles, and we know how great food, made with care, brings people together. Our back-of-house teams bring that to life every day through fresh prep, real cooking techniques, and care put into every bowl we serve. Whether you're learning our saut skills, supporting your team during a rush, or helping maintain a positive kitchen environment, your work shapes every bowl we serve.

If you're ready to build skills, learn something new, and grow with a team that values your contribution, apply today. After your interview, we'll treat you to a complimentary meal (up to $10 value), because every great connection starts with great food.

We offer a place to learn, grow, and build confidence, with perks designed to support both work and life:

  • Competitive pay plus tips
  • Flexible schedules for part-time or full-time needs
  • Ability to get early access to earned pay
  • Meal and lifestyle discounts, including event tickets and cell phones
  • Tuition assistance and scholarship opportunities
  • Recognition programs that celebrate your achievements
  • Free mental health, legal, and financial resources to support your well-being
  • Medical & pharmacy, dental, vision, and pet insurance
  • 401(k) with employer match and stock purchase discounts
  • Leadership development programs to fuel your growth
  • Free online Spanish and English courses
  • Noodles Resource Groups - inclusive communities that foster belonging, build connections, and support your personal and professional growth

As a Back-of-House Team Member, you help create a great guest experience by:

  • Preparing fresh ingredients and cooking dishes to order. No experience with a saut pan is needed; we will provide paid training.
  • Ensuring each dish is made with consistency, quality, and attention to presentation.
  • Following recipes, prep guides, and standard procedures accurately.
  • Learning and refining kitchen and saut skills through hands-on training.
  • Maintaining pace during peak hours and supporting smooth kitchen flow.
  • Working in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment where communication matters.
  • Managing multiple tasks effectively to help meet guest expectations during busy shifts.
  • Working safely around kitchen equipment, heat, and steam.
  • Using kitchen tools, timers, and basic systems as part of daily routines.
  • Keeping the restaurant clean and organized while following food safety and sanitation standards.
  • Bringing dependability, positivity, and a supportive attitude to every shift.
  • Meeting the physical requirements of the role, which may include, but are not limited to, standing for long periods, bending, twisting, reaching, lifting up to 55 pounds, and performing routine restaurant tasks, with or without reasonable accommodation.
  • Obtaining and maintaining any required food safety licenses or certifications in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
  • Must be at least 16 years old, making this a great opportunity for teens or anyone eager to gain new skills and start building their career.

Noodles & Company is an Equal Opportunity Employer and a Military Friendly workplace. We encourage Veterans and their spouses to apply. We are proud to be recognized on Forbes' Best Employers for Diversity, Forbes' Best Employers for Women, and Forbes' Best Employers for Company Culture lists, and are committed to creating a workplace where Noodlers feel supported, respected, and able to bring their full self to work.

Application Deadline: We accept applications for this position on an ongoing basis. There is no specific application deadline, and we encourage interested individuals to submit their applications at their convenience.
