Job Description

Bertucci's is a renowned restaurant chain with a rich heritage that dates back to 1981, when it first opened its doors in the Davis Square neighborhood of Somerville, Massachusetts. For over 35 years, Bertucci's has been dedicated to perfecting the art of brick oven cooking, setting itself apart through the unique use of its signature brick ovens. Each oven is constructed from 936 bricks, symbolizing strength, stability, and authenticity, which are the cornerstones of Bertucci's culinary culture. This distinct cooking method allows Bertucci's to deliver exceptional pizzas and pasta dishes made from scratch using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients. The company prides itself on maintaining traditional cooking practices, notably avoiding the use of microwaves in its kitchens to ensure genuine, hand-made flavors in every dish served.

As a leading brand in the restaurant industry, Bertucci's commitment to quality extends beyond food preparation to creating a vibrant, welcoming environment for guests. This atmosphere is enhanced by a diverse wine list and inventive drink options, complementing the fresh and authentic Italian cuisine on offer.
