About Us:

Bring the taste of the East Coast to the West Coast!

We are passionate about quality, authenticity, and giving our customers the best slice in town. We are currently looking for a true Pizza Pro to join our family!

The Role:

Are you a master of the dough? Do you know your way around a pizza oven with your eyes closed? We are looking for an Experienced Pizza Maker who lives and breathes pizza. You won't just be throwing standard cheese pies; we need an expert who knows how to craft everything from a perfect Sicilian to golden-baked calzones. If you know \"anything and everything pizza\", you belong in our kitchen!

• Versatility: You aren't just a one-trick pony. You know the exact techniques required to fold a calzone, roll a stromboli, and build a heavy stuffed pizza without the dough breaking.


• Hustle & Heart: Ability to thrive in a high-volume, fast-paced food court environment, especially during lunch rushes and dinner peaks.


• Team Player: We are a family-owned business. We want someone who brings a positive attitude and a strong work ethic to our kitchen crew.
