  • Collaborate closely with the General Manager to ensure seamless service and an outstanding guest experience.
  • Manage BOH scheduling — while consecutive days off are not guaranteed, you’ll have the flexibility to arrange your schedule as long as the kitchen is running smoothly.
  • Foster a positive, professional culture that emphasizes consistency, teamwork, and growth.
  • Uphold health, sanitation, and safety standards at the highest level.

What We’re Looking For

  • A passionate culinary leader with strong Japanese cuisine experience (yakitori, izakaya, ramen, sushi, etc.).
  • Proven ability to manage, train, and mentor BOH staff in a high-volume NYC environment.
  • Strong organizational skills with a focus on execution, consistency, and cost management.
  • A collaborative spirit — able to work closely with FOH leadership and ownership.
  • A creative mindset and excitement for contributing to the restaurant’s evolving vision.

What We Offer

  • 💵 Competitive Salary: $93K–$125K + Performance-Based Bonus
  • 🩺  Health Care : 100% coverage for employee, starting day one

  • 🌎  Career Growth : Green Card sponsorship (all company expenses covered) after 2 years of contribution
  • 🚀 A chance to join a  respected NYC hospitality group with strong career development opportunities

This is an exciting opportunity for a talented and motivated chef ready to step into a leadership role and help shape the future of one of Koreatown’s most dynamic Japanese restaurants.
