Job Description

Ted's Montana Grill is a distinctive dining establishment known for its commitment to quality, tradition, and memorable guest experiences. As a premium casual restaurant, Ted's Montana Grill emphasizes freshness, sustainability, and authentic flavors, making it a standout in the competitive restaurant industry. Operating with a scratch kitchen philosophy, the restaurant prides itself on preparing all menu items in small batches to ensure premium freshness and flavor. What truly sets Ted's Montana Grill apart is its on-premise butcher shop where team members hand carve and grind beef and bison daily, guaranteeing the peak quality of its offerings. This attention to detail aligns with their identity as a Premium, Polished, and Professional workplace, affectionately termed 3 PC, all guided by the "Big Sky Spirit," a cultural compass that influences every aspect of the restaurant’s operation from food preparation to guest interaction.

Ted's Montana Grill is currently seeking Line Cooks, Prep Cooks, and Dishwashers who are passionate about great food and thrive in a team-oriented environment.

Line and Prep Cooks at Ted's Montana Grill are not only responsible for cooking but also display culinary showmanship and engage with guests, contributing to the warm and memorable atmosphere that defines the restaurant. The role demands multitasking ability in a fast-paced environment where physical stamina is essential. Cooks and Dishwashers are expected to uphold the high standards of the scratch kitchen by preparing food without the use of microwaves, thus maintaining the integrity and authenticity of the menu. The company's culture fosters career development opportunities, with many managers beginning their journey as team members, highlighting the potential for growth within the organization.

Working at Ted's Montana Grill offers a range of benefits including competitive wages, flexible scheduling, medical benefits, and a 401(k) plan with matching contributions. The company also values work-life balance, demonstrated by its policy of closing restaurants on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day to support family time and quality of life for its employees. Additionally, the restaurant promotes sustainability and social responsibility, incorporating eco-friendly practices such as using paper straws and sustainable kitchen operations. This commitment to people, product, and prosperity shapes a progressive and welcoming work environment. Ted’s Montana Grill encourages dedicated individuals who are great team players, capable of standing throughout their shifts, and prepared to handle tasks such as lifting up to 100 pounds multiple times per shift to join their team.
