Sous Chef


Description
Sotto is looking to add to its back-of-house team!

In acquiring the former Maisonette building, BRG also obtained the La Normandie space located in the rustic basement. The former steakhouse was dark and cozy with a large fireplace. It screamed “comfort,” “authenticity,” and “pasta”! To pay homage to the ancient brick and mortar, Chef Falk developed the Sotto concept. Tenacious and restrained, hardcore and heartfelt, we practice the tradition of generations of chefs in an underground hideaway. Our menu is fire, meat, wheat, and above all, Italian.

Boca Restaurant Group lives and breathes for the idea of BPA — Blowing People Away. Founded by David Falk in 2001 with the opening of his flagship restaurant, Boca, BRG continues to set the standard for culinary excellence with three distinctly unique restaurant concepts, Boca, Sotto, Nada, & their delivery concept, Domo.

We are seeking highly motivated individuals with a passion for food, service, & hospitality. We are eager to invite you into our culture of BPA.

You will be working with the other chefs, and chef de cuisine in the company to develop menus, manage staff and uphold standards set by yourselves. This job is focused on teaching traditional techniques while using the best products available. We focus on teaching, learning, and push to obsess over details. Fine dining experience is not necessary & will not be focused on, all we are seeking is a willingness to learn and develop.
