Job Description

Kura Sushi USA is a trailblazer in the Japanese restaurant industry, specializing in a unique revolving sushi dining experience that blends traditional culinary art with innovative technology.

This role requires flexibility, including availability to work days, nights, weekends, and holidays, catering to the dynamic needs of a bustling restaurant environment.
