Job Description Sushi Chef Location: Coconut Grove, FL Employment Type: Full-Time (30-40 hours) About OMAKAI OMAKAI is a traditional sushi restaurant with one aim: to be known for blowing people's minds. Everything we do rests on three guarantees: warm rice for contrast, crispy nori for texture, and kind service. Every guest, every visit. We serve high-quality traditional sushi at an accessible price, and we are growing across South Florida and expanding to other cities nationally with our full-service restaurants and hand roll bars. We aim to hold ourselves to a five-star hotel standard in a casual dining room, which means the details matter here more than they do in most restaurants. We treat every guest with genuine kindness and focus heavily on execution. Our team runs on accountability, reliability, and doing what we say we will do. Position Overview We are seeking Sushi Chefs at every level of our kitchen, from our roll and sashimi stations through our nigiri line. We require at least one year of restaurant experience for our entry-level Sushi Chef positions or a strong willingness to learn, and our senior stations require two or more years of hands-on nigiri and neta work. Our sushi chefs work in four levels, and this posting is open to all of them. Chef B owns sashimi and the roll section. Chef B2 owns plating and saucing, the finishing station where every outgoing plate meets our presentation standard. Chef A2 owns neta prep and takeout nigiri, cutting and portioning all fish and toppings and keeping the nigiri station stocked and labeled after service. Chef A owns nigiri prep and service, the most demanding seat in the kitchen, where rice, fish placement, and presentation have to be identical from the first ticket to the last. Where you start depends on your experience, knife work, and speed, and every level has a clear path to the next.
