Job Description

Bagelmania has been a beloved establishment since 1989, serving as the heart and soul of New York-style bagels and classic Jewish deli cuisine in Las Vegas. This restaurant has built a strong local and tourist following due to its commitment to quality, tradition, and innovation in its menu offerings. In 2018, Bagelmania made a significant upgrade by relocating to a 10,000 square-foot space near the Las Vegas Convention Center, providing seating for 200 guests and featuring a full bar. This expansion has allowed Bagelmania to enhance its customer experience, blending its authentic food traditions with a modern, vibrant atmosphere. Known for its mouthwatering bagels, savory deli specialties, and warm hospitality, Bagelmania has become a must-visit dining destination in Las Vegas that continues to attract a diverse clientele.

The role of Kitchen Manager at Bagelmania is crucial to maintaining and elevating the culinary excellence and operational success of this iconic eatery.

You will be directly involved in food preparation and presentation, ensuring that the quality and flavors meet the high standards that customers expect. Beyond the kitchen, your leadership will keep the operation running smoothly—from hiring and scheduling staff to managing payroll and overseeing training programs. You will also control inventory to make sure the kitchen is stocked with fresh, high-quality ingredients and essentials. Maintaining impeccable health and sanitation standards is a priority to keep the kitchen sparkling clean and compliant with all regulations. Additionally, you will handle special projects such as catering, to-go orders, and private events with finesse, ensuring seamless execution. A key part of the role involves mentoring and coaching kitchen staff, promoting a positive and energetic work environment that encourages team growth and individual skill development.
