- Ability to work quickly without sacrificing quality.
- A positive, team-oriented attitude—even under pressure.
- Strong attention to detail and pride in your work.
- Openness to learning and embracing our plant-based cooking style (vegan experience is a plus, but not required).

- Competitive hourly pay plus tips.
- Staff meals so you can enjoy the food you help create.
- Flexible scheduling to support work-life balance.
