Cook – Pica’s Group (Family-Owned, Fast-Paced, Zero Drama… Mostly)
About Us
We’re a family-owned, family-run restaurant group where the food is real, the pace is fast, and the team feels like a slightly chaotic but lovable sitcom cast. We work hard, laugh harder, and take pride in serving scratch-made food that keeps our guests coming back.
The Gig
We’re looking for a cook who can handle the heat — literally. Someone who thrives in a busy kitchen, loves great food, and doesn’t flinch when the printer decides to spit out 12 tickets at once.
What You’ll Do
- Crush the line during busy services with speed, accuracy, and a sense of humor
- Prep real ingredients for a real scratch kitchen — no shortcuts, no nonsense
- Keep your station clean, organized, and ready for battle
- Work as part of a tight-knit crew that communicates, supports each other, and occasionally roasts each other (lovingly)
- Follow recipes, but also bring your own creativity and pride to the plate
- Help maintain our high standards for quality, consistency, and “holy crap that’s good” moments
What You Bring
- Experience on the line or a willingness to learn fast
- A positive attitude — we can teach skills, but we can’t teach “not being a jerk”
- Ability to move with purpose in a fast-paced environment
- Pride in your work and respect for the craft
- Reliability — because your team counts on you
- A sense of humor… trust us, it helps
Why You’ll Love It Here
- Family-owned, not corporate
- A team that actually works together
- Real food, real skills, real growth
- Competitive pay, good vibes, and a kitchen culture built on respect
- You’ll go home tired, but proud
- Base pay plus tips and gratuities once trained (tips and gratuities range from $2-$10/hr based on volume)
If you want to cook great food with great people — and you’re not afraid of a little controlled chaos — we’d love to meet you.
