The Loyalist, a French-focused neighborhood destination, is looking for a sous chef for a full-time role. Day-to-day responsibilities include ordering of ingredients and restaurant supplies, teaching and supporting the line team, organizing private events, and making sure each dish leaving the kitchen is up to par. Our dining room serves up to 200 guests in a service, so understanding of organization and time management is key.

The Loyalist menu introduces French technique to a dynamic neighborhood restaurant that also happens to serve one of the best burgers in the US. While we are well-known for our cheeseburger, the menu is intricate and very seasonal, following the same philosophy as our three-Michelin-star sister restaurant. Frequent changes and specials allow all of our culinary team to influence dishes on the menu. This role will also work closely with Chef John Shields and his executive chef, developing dishes with deep reverence to classic French cuisine.

Health insurance is available to all full-time employees with company contribution, and as is 401k eligibility after one year of employment.
