About the role
We're a historic West Oakland venue reopening our front bar three nights a week with a tight, five-item kitchen.
You are the kitchen. One cook, one dishwasher/prep, and a small front-of-house crew.
Schedule — fixed, every week
- Wednesday, 5pm — prep only, no service (out around 9–10pm)
- Thursday, 5pm — prep and service (out by 12:30am)
- Friday, 5pm — prep and service (out by 12:30am)
- Saturday, 5pm — prep and service (out by 12:30am)
Roughly 27 hours. Same days, same call time, every week. We need someone who can commit to that consistently — it's the single most important part of this job.
What you'll do
- Run Wednesday prep so the weekend is set.
- Execute all menu items to spec during service
- Order against par sheets and manage your own inventory
- Maintain a clean station, hold temp logs, and close the kitchen down
What we're looking for
- Two-plus years on a line
- Comfortable working solo
- Organized with prep. You think a shift ahead
- Reliable. If you say you're there Thursday, you're there Thursday
- California Food Handler Card required (or obtained before first shift)
What we offer
- Guaranteed four shifts a week, fixed schedule
- Small menu, real ownership, no chaos
- Growing operation — more nights and more hours as we build
To apply: tell us where you've cooked and confirm you're available Wednesday through Saturday with a 5pm start.
