About The Position

At Mandolin Aegean Bistro, the Line Cook III contributes to service by supporting a dedicated section, preparing food and sauces, and assisting Senior Chefs when needed. The role calls for someone who can remain calm in a fast-paced service, demonstrate strong skills at one or more stations, and positively influence the team. A Line Cook III is specialized rather than skilled across every station, but can execute menu items properly from prep to plate and deliver high-quality dishes from two or more stations.

The position involves preparing and presenting food to kitchen standards, supporting prep and kitchen operations, and maintaining sanitary, safe, organized, and stocked work areas. The Line Cook III follows recipes, portion controls, and presentation specifications, while monitoring cooking temperatures, waste, and quality. The role also includes supporting team development, service meetings when requested, and a welcoming, positive work environment.
