Line Cook

Our mission is to be a business that nourishes our community in more than one way. That community starts with our team.
We seek team members who are motivated, positive, and continually strive for growth. Growth means being comfortable with change (even when it's uncomfortable), making mistakes (and learning from them!) and having the ability to laugh along the way (a good sense of humor is a must!).
Tonino’s values are Trust, Nourish, Community, and Intention. We seek team members who value those things, too. Individuals of all backgrounds, ages, and identities are encouraged to apply. Those who demean others based on race, religion, gender identification, sexual orientation, nationality, ethnicity, or ability are not.
About Tonino
Located in the heart of Jamaica Plain, MA, Tonino is a neighborhood restaurant first and an Italian restaurant second. Drawing inspiration from the trattorias, enotecas and aperitivo bars that are the heartbeat to the smaller neighborhoods surrounding Rome’s city center, Tonino serves to be a space for locals to gather, relax and be in community with one another.
Chef Luke Fetbroth partners with local restaurateur David Doyle (Tres Gatos, Casa Verde) to bring handmade pastas, Sicilian-style pizza, and an eclectic, food-centric beverage program to their own neighborhood.
