Sushi Chef

Full-time

Sushi Lab Rooftop

MUST HAVE SUSHI CHEF EXPERIENCE

We’re all about creativity, precision, and flavor. Our mission is to bring Japanese-inspired cuisine to life with premium ingredients, bold combinations, and a dining experience that’s as fresh and vibrant as the city itself.

We’re looking for a Sushi Chef for our two sushi restaurants — Chemistry Room and Sushi Lab — in Midtown Manhattan. This role oversees both concepts and sets the culinary tone, quality standards, and guest experience across each location. If you have a passion for omakase, love experimenting with flavors, and take pride in leading a strong team, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Sushi and omakase execution across Chemistry Room and Sushi Lab
  • Create high-quality sushi and omakase dishes that consistently impress guests
  • Prepare various types of sushi according to established guidelines on quality, portion size, and presentation
  • Maintain the highest standards of freshness, consistency, and presentation
  • Engage with guests to create a personalized, memorable dining experience

What You’ll Bring to the Table

  • 3+ years of experience as a Sushi Chef (omakase experience required)
  • Strong command of sushi techniques, knife skills, and presentation
  • Calm, focused, and effective under pressure
  • Excellent attention to detail and pride in craftsmanship
  • Solid knowledge of food safety and sanitation standards
  • Positive, guest-focused leadership style
