Support meat slicing, portioning, storage, and handling procedures to maintain consistency and quality.

Monitor food quality, taste, presentation, speed of service, and kitchen workflow.

Maintain kitchen cleanliness, organization, sanitation, and compliance with health department regulations.

Create and follow prep lists, opening/closing checklists, and kitchen SOPs.

Communicate clearly with front-of-house management to support smooth service and guest satisfaction.

Help hire, train, coach, and supervise kitchen team members.

Handle high-pressure, high-volume service periods with professionalism and strong leadership.

Qualifications

Minimum 2–5 years of kitchen experience, preferably in Japanese cuisine, hot pot, shabu shabu, sushi, BBQ, buffet, or high-volume restaurant operations.

Prior experience as Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef, Lead Cook, Head Cook, Sushi Chef, Prep Lead, or similar role preferred.

Must be able to teach staff how to prepare, cook, and execute menu items consistently.

Strong knife skills and food preparation knowledge preferred.

Experience with meat handling, slicing, portioning, seafood preparation, or hot pot ingredients is a plus.

Knowledge of food safety, sanitation, inventory control, and kitchen organization.

Ability to stand for long periods and lift up to 50 lbs as needed.

Must be authorized to work in the United States.

Must be reliable, punctual, organized, and able to lead by example.
