Cook

Overview Our YOU FIRST Philosophy. In addition to no night shifts, ever, and our fully chef‑curated menu, our #1 priority has always been our people. We care about our customers, and we care about you! That’s where our YOU FIRST culture begins – each day, we put our employees first and strive to make them happy. We empower employees with independence to make decisions that help provide an exceptional breakfast, brunch, or lunch experience for our customers. Position Details Our Back‑of‑the‑House team members have a mutual respect for quality food, and they perform their responsibilities as if placing a personal signature on every plate. Newly hired cooks will train in a specific station based on their comfort level & innate skill.
