  • 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
