We're hiring. Back of house, kitchen prep and dishwasher. Here's what this job actually is: you show up on time, you work hard, you keep the kitchen moving. That's it. Not glamorous — but genuinely important. Nothing works without this role. We're a 40-seat Euro-American restaurant and wine bar in Ashland. Small kitchen, high standards, fast pace. We take the work seriously. We don't take ourselves too seriously. You don't need experience. You need to be someone who takes direction well, moves with a sense of urgency, and takes pride in doing the unglamorous stuff right. If you're the kind of person who notices what needs doing and does it without being asked, you'll fit in here.
