Edelweiss Biergarten — Phoenix's authentic German & Hungarian biergarten on Bell Road — is hiring line cooks who take pride in their craft. Our open kitchen is on display, our schnitzel has a reputation to protect, and our team runs on speed, precision, and respect for one another. If you move fast without getting sloppy and you leave your station cleaner than you found it, you'll fit right in.
About Edelweiss
We're a 300-seat family biergarten serving real German & Hungarian food, imported beers, and a whole lot of Gemütlichkeit (that's German for good times and good company). We host everything from birthday dinners to full-restaurant Oktoberfest buyouts, and our food is the number one reason people come through the door— the kitchen is where that starts.
Our Hospitality Promise
This is who we are, and it's the heart of this job. We are superheroes in hospitality —We treat everyone with kindness and respect, we hold ourselves to higher standards, and we clean as if a TV show were showcasing how excellent restaurants operate. In the kitchen, that shows up as pride in every plate, zero tolerance for a dirty station, and treating your teammates with respect even in the weeds. Cleaning is the #1 job here — cooking is a close second.
What you'll do
- Work the line during service — grill, sauté, fry, and plate our German & Hungarian menu to spec, fast and consistently.
- Learn every dish on our menu. There are no trade secrets at Edelweiss; you'll be trained on each item with reasonable time to master it.
- Hold the standard
- Clean as you go — Always Be Cleaning. Wipe down equipment through the shift, and never pass food on the floor.
- Plate food that's ready to be photographed and shared with the world. We don't serve anything we wouldn't eat ourselves.
- Support your teammates through the rush — "we" before "me," especially when it's slammed.
What you'll earn
- $18–$20/hour , depending on experience
What we're looking for
- Line experience is a plus, but we'll train the right person who brings heart and hustle.
- Speed and precision — you move fast but never sloppily, and you anticipate what the line needs next.
- A clean-as-you-go mindset and genuine respect for food safety.
- Team-first attitude — no name-calling, no gestures, no drama; professional and respectful under stress.
- A valid Maricopa County Food Handler's Card (or the ability to get one before your first shift).
- Available 20+ hours/week, including evenings, weekends, and Oktoberfest — our busiest, best season.
- Comfortable in an open kitchen that stays clean and professional, always visible to guests.
Why you'll love it here
- A crew that takes pride in the craft and has each other's backs.
- An authentic German biergarten atmosphere — loud, fun, welcoming, never sloppy.
- Consistent hours, a growing events business, and clear room to move up.
