The job requires a proactive approach to preparing menu items according to established guidelines that ensure flavor, portion control, and presentation standards are consistently met. Team Members must adhere to food safety protocols, including proper holding temperatures, sanitary handling, and packaging of food for both dine-in and takeout orders.

Beyond food preparation, this role demands a high level of interaction with customers, maintaining a friendly demeanor, warm eye contact, and engaging communication to create a welcoming atmosphere.
