We proudly partner with Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch—Wisconsin’s first and only —to ensure responsibly sourced, well‑managed seafood .

  • Maintain cooking stations and support line efficiency during service

  • Plate and present dishes in a visually appealing, standardized format

  • Collaborate with team members to ensure timely, quality service

  • Follow all food safety, sanitation, and Seafood Watch sourcing standards

  • Support cross-training across other kitchen roles if desired

Qualifications:
  • Proven experience as a hot line cook in a high-volume, fine-dining, or upscale casual restaurant

  • Strong technical skills and knowledge of hot‑food preparation

  • Ability to work evenings, flexible shifts including weekends and holidays

  • Passion for sustainable seafood, creativity, and consistent quality

  • Excellent communication and team-oriented mindset

  • Willingness to cross‑train in sushi or other kitchen positions (optional)

What We Offer
  • Competitive hourly wage: $19–$24 for qualified hot‑line or sushi chefs

  • Flexible schedule and part-time or full-time options

  • Paid time off (PTO) program

  • Free food during shifts

  • Staff discounts and tip programs (varies by location)

  • Potential to participate in private omakase experiences (for experienced sushi chefs)

  • Growth & leadership opportunities within upcoming expansion locations
