Sous Chef - Austin, TX Aba & Ema
$65,000-$75,000/year Full-Time Exempt
Lettuce Entertain You Restaurants is growing Aba, our acclaimed Mediterranean concept, in Dallas, TX. Join a high-volume kitchen backed by one of the country's most respected restaurant groups.
We're hiring a Sous Chef to run the line and lead a back-of-house team that doesn't cut corners. This is a hands-on leadership role for a cook who's ready to own a shift, not just work one.
What You'll Do
Run BOH shifts and oversee the line during service, ensuring food quality, presentation, and timing hit the mark
Lead pre-shift meetings, line checks, temp checks, and cooler checks
Partner with the GM and chef team to build prep lists and assign production duties
Purchase and order food product and supplies; help track and control food cost
Interview, hire, train, coach, and develop BOH team members
Ensure sanitation, safety, and food allergy procedures are followed to the letter
Close down the kitchen - breaking down the line, closing coolers and employee areas
What You Bring
Minimum 3 years of salaried leadership experience in a high-volume, full-service restaurant
Upscale restaurant background preferred over fast casual or casual concepts
A team-first attitude and the ability to multitask calmly under pressure
Ability to stand/walk a full shift and lift up to 50 lbs
Availability for early mornings, late nights, and weekends
Please note: this role is a fit for candidates coming from upscale, full-service restaurants only - experience from fast casual/casual concepts, cafeterias, country clubs, nursing homes, schools, or contract kitchens will not transfer to this environment.
A note on growth: this is a high-volume, high-standards kitchen. It's the right move for a cook ready to level up - not for someone looking for an immediate jump to Executive Chef.
