About Us
Breakfast at Barney's is a Southern luxury brunch destination in the heart of Atlanta. We're known for elevated comfort food, exceptional hospitality, and a kitchen that runs with precision. We're looking for a strong Kitchen Expo to be the connective tissue between our kitchen and our guests — the person who makes sure every plate leaves the pass exactly right, exactly on time.
What You'll Do
- Run the expo station during high-volume brunch service, calling tickets and pacing the kitchen
- Quality-check every plate for accuracy, presentation, and temperature before it leaves the pass
- Communicate directly with FOH to keep timing tight between kitchen and dining room
- Catch and correct errors before they reach the guest — you're the last line of defense
- Coordinate with line cooks to keep ticket times on pace during peak rushes
- Maintain plate presentation standards consistent with our brand
- Keep the pass organized, clean, and stocked throughout service
- Support kitchen leadership with day-to-day service flow and problem-solving in real time
What We're Looking For
- Previous experience as an expo, kitchen lead, or similar high-volume BOH/FOH-adjacent role
- Rock-solid multitasking skills — you can track a dozen tickets at once without losing your cool
- A sharp eye for detail and presentation
- Clear, confident communicator who can direct a team under pressure
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, high-volume brunch environment
- Team-first attitude with a strong sense of urgency
- Food handler certification (or willingness to obtain)
- Weekend availability required (brunch is our busiest service)
Why Barney's
- Competitive pay plus tip-out structure
- A well-run kitchen with real systems, training, and support — not chaos
- Growth opportunities within a growing restaurant group
- A team that takes hospitality and craft seriously
