Norfolk, VA Full Time
POSTED ON 8/29/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 12/27/2026

Established in March 2012, The Dirty Buffalo brings the taste of Western New York to Hampton Roads! We are a family-owned, locally operated restaurant that focuses on delivering great wings and other Northern comfort food in a casual, family-friendly environment. We are also growing! We opened our first franchise in 2021 and plan to continue to expand throughout the Southeast. Check out our website, www.thedirtybuffalo.com for more information about who we are and what it’s like to work here.

Skills:

  • You love a clean, neat and organized work environment.
  • You can handle a fast-paced, high-pressure kitchen.
  • You prefer working on a team, helping out your peers, and jumping in where you are needed - even if it’s taking out the trash or mopping floors.
  • You take your job seriously and don’t call out or show up late unless it’s a true emergency
  • You like to hustle, always keep moving and would prefer to stay busy.
  • You’re excited to learn something new and be part of something good.


Responsibilities:

  • You operate, clean and maintain a commercial dishwasher and other kitchen equipment.
  • You stay organized, put things back where they belong, and keep cleaning throughout your shift
  • You maintain correct sanitation concentrations and heat levels to ensure we keep our guests safe.
  • You are a skilled communicator and love to keep yourself and everyone else on task.
  • You show up on time, in uniform, ready to work every day
  • You take and receive direction and help others when they fall behind
  • When you see something that isn’t right, you go out of your way to make it right.


You must be willing and able to:

  • Stand up and move for most - if not all - of your shift and lift up to 50 lbs.
  • Work weekends and holidays
  • Get to work in inclement weather (we are from Buffalo, we don’t close for snow)
  • Understand and communicate in the predominant language of our guests.


What The Dirty Buffalo offers YOU:

  • Competitive wages, flexible schedules, same day pay, employee discounts.
  • Full Benefits Package for full time employees, inc. health, dental, 401K, profit sharing, vision, life, disability, and parental leave.
  • A fun, energetic work environment. Team members tell us they feel like family.
  • The ability to grow with a company that will be franchising across the East Coast.


We get it. We get you.

Our food isn’t one size fits all and our job opportunities aren’t either. Whether you’re looking for your first job or to build a career, a lot of hours or something to keep you busy on the weekend, we’ve got you covered. We are also a proud equal opportunity employer - that means all races, religions, nationalities, genders and the LGBTQ community are welcome. We provide reasonable accommodations in order to enable people with disabilities to perform the essential functions of their jobs.
