Job description

Phoenix & Folly is a new locally owned restaurant and bar built around elevated comfort food, serious cocktails, and a little mischief.

Our food is approachable without being boring: artisan pizza, smash burgers, sandwiches, shareables, dinner plates, and rotating specials. We're building a menu people can come back for regularly while still giving the kitchen room to try something new.

We're not interested in a kitchen full of unnecessary ego. We want cooks who care about their food, communicate with each other, keep their stations clean, and know how to move when tickets start stacking up.

Move fast. Cook well. Don't be an asshole.
