Sticks’n’Sushi is as unique as the city we’re coming to. We serve high-quality, fresh food based on a unique combination of classic and creative sushi along with sticks from the grill, created by our 'Strange Fish'. We are looking for a Grill Chef to join our kitchen team. This role is for a chef who takes pride in their work, enjoys working in a busy kitchen, passionate about grilling and presenting the very best kushiyaki sticks caring about quality, teamwork, and consistency.
