Join the Family Diner Team

At Family Diner, we’re more than just a restaurant — we’re a family. Every plate we serve and every smile we share is part of our mission to bring folks together around the table, one meal at a time. We’re looking for hardworking, dependable people who take pride in good food and genuine hospitality to join our kitchen crew.

About the Role

We’re searching for someone who loves cooking the Southern way — hearty breakfasts, homestyle lunches, and meals made with care. This role is all about preparing quality food, keeping a clean kitchen, and helping us create an experience that feels like home for everyone who walks through our doors.

What You’ll Do

  • Prepare and cook meals following Family Diner recipes and standards.
  • Help plan daily specials that keep our menu fresh and exciting.
  • Maintain high standards of food safety, cleanliness, and organization.
  • Work alongside our kitchen team to ensure smooth service and satisfied guests.
  • Handle food with care, following all safety and health regulations.
  • Assist with catering and special events when needed.
  • Bring creativity, teamwork, and pride to every plate you serve.

What We’re Looking For

  • Previous kitchen or restaurant experience preferred — but we’ll train the right person with a good attitude.
  • Solid cooking skills and a love for Southern comfort food.
  • Strong understanding of food safety and kitchen cleanliness.
  • Ability to work well with others in a fast-paced, family-style environment.
  • Good communication and a willingness to lend a hand wherever needed.

If you’re ready to join a team where hard work feels like home and every day ends with pride in what you’ve made, we’d love to have you join the Family Diner family.
