Full job description
At Rocket Farm Restaurants, the core philosophy that defines our culture is “We serve the person who is serving the guest.” Our culture is not something we act out on the floor of the restaurant. It starts with how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen – with dignity, respect, and care. We believe there should be no difference in how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen and how we treat and serve our guests in the dining room. We hope you agree and will consider joining us!
The Optimist brings a seaside fish camp experience to landlocked Atlantans with high quality, sustainably sourced seafood and beach-food classics that transport you to your favorite seaside haunts.
The Optimist is seeking an experienced Cook to join our award-winning culinary team!
Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment and have a meticulous eye for detail? An Optimist Cook has a strong knowledge and understanding of the preparation of hot and cold food items and ability to communicate and expedite food items on the back line while managing their assigned station to ultimately ensure total guest satisfaction. A culinary training degree is preferred but not required. Apply today and become part of a dynamic, innovative, and heartfelt group of unique individuals!
Competitive pay - $16 to $24/hr. - based on experience and ability.
As a valued member of our team, you will receive:
A supportive culture and ethical work environment
