Job Description
Kura Sushi USA is an innovative and tech-interactive Japanese restaurant that has been redefining the sushi dining experience since its establishment in 2008. As a subsidiary of Kura Sushi, Inc., this company builds on the rich heritage of its parent company, Kura Corporation, which opened its first restaurant in Osaka, Japan, in 1977. With over 540 locations spanning Japan, Taiwan, and the United States, Kura Sushi is widely recognized as a pioneer of the revolving sushi concept, combining advanced technology, premium ingredients, and affordable prices to create a unique dining atmosphere that delights sushi lovers of all ages.
At its core, Kura Sushi USA focuses on revolutionizing how sushi is presented and enjoyed by integrating cutting-edge automation and interactive experiences that enhance every visit. This approach not only offers customers delicious food but also an engaging and fun way to experience traditional Japanese cuisine in a modern setting. Their signature revolving sushi belt concept allows diners to select from a dynamic array of fresh sushi options as they pass by, ensuring freshness, convenience, and personalization in each meal.
Kura Sushi prides itself on its commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunity employment. The company welcomes candidates from all backgrounds and ensures a discrimination-free work environment aligned with federal, state, and local laws. Employees at Kura Sushi are valued for their passion, dedication, and teamwork, creating a supportive atmosphere where every team member can thrive and grow.
This particular opportunity is for the role of Line Cooks/Prep Cooks at the Las Vegas location. These team members are essential to the operation of the restaurant, responsible for preparing fresh, tasty, and high-quality food that meets Kura Sushi’s exacting standards. Candidates who join the Kura Krew will be part of a passionate team that values food quality, culture, and customer experience.
The position offers competitive wages starting at $13.75 per hour plus tips, with projected earnings around $18.75 per hour when including tips – though actual tip earnings may vary. Both full-time and part-time schedules are available, with a preference for candidates willing to work days, nights, weekends, and holidays to meet operational needs. Kura Sushi invites applicants who are at least 18 years old to apply and become part of this vibrant culinary team.
Line Cooks and Prep Cooks at Kura Sushi are expected to be team players who go above and beyond in their roles. They must be organized, adept at multitasking, and committed to maintaining food safety standards and restaurant cleanliness. Enthusiasm for learning and preparing sushi according to Kura’s authentic standards is highly valued, as is the ability to consistently deliver quality dishes that delight guests.
Kura Sushi also offers an attractive benefits package to eligible employees, emphasizing work-life balance, growth, and rewards. Benefits include earning solid tips, meal discounts, flexible scheduling, career advancement opportunities with a strong focus on internal promotion, and a generous employee referral program that incentivizes working with friends. These benefits underline the company’s dedication to supporting its staff both in and out of the workplace, ensuring a healthy, motivated, and engaged team.
