Production Cook

Union Mak
Honolulu, HI Full Time
POSTED ON 10/8/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/4/2026

BUILD PROFESSIONAL CULINARY SKILLS IN A FINE DINING KITCHEN!


We’re looking for people who want to learn, work hard, and become exceptional in the field of cooking & serving traditional French culinary style cuisine.


Located at a beautiful restaurant in the Heart of Waikiki.


We are hiring for multiple positions in an upscale, high-energy restaurant with a strong focus on French culinary technique, from foundational preparation to advanced cooking methods.


Positions Available

  • Prep Cook
  • Line Cook
  • Sauté Cook
  • Pantry / Garde Manger
  • Dishwasher
  • Kitchen Cleaner
  • Host / Hostess
  • Delivery & Receiving Specialist


EXPERIENCE IS WELCOME. DRIVE IS REQUIRED.

Professional kitchen experience is a plus—but it is not a requirement.

We would rather train someone from the ground up who is motivated, coachable, reliable, and serious about learning than hire someone with years of experience who isn't willing to follow standards.


You will be expected to:

  • Follow recipes, procedures, and direction accurately
  • Maintain high standards of cleanliness, organization, and food safety
  • Work efficiently in a fast-paced environment
  • Accept instruction and constructive feedback
  • Show up consistently and ready to work
  • Take pride in your station and your work
  • Learn proper technique rather than simply learning shortcuts
  • Work respectfully as part of a team


We invest heavily in training.

If you have the drive to learn, there is room to develop serious professional culinary skills here.


WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Availability:
AM (10-11 AM start) or PM (12-2 PM start) availability, approximately 3–5 days per week, with reliable attendance.


Mindset:
Passion

Love of food & the craft

Strong work ethic

Coachability

Attention to detail


Professionalism:
This is a professional kitchen. No working under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and no substance use during work. We expect everyone to arrive fit for duty and ready to perform.


Physical requirements:
Restaurant work is physically demanding.


Positions may require prolonged standing, walking, lifting, carrying, bending, repetitive motion, and working at a fast pace for extended periods.


Cleaning is a requirement for all stations.


Food requirements:
Because quality control is an essential part of our operation, culinary positions require the ability to taste food and evaluate seasoning, flavor profiles, texture, and doneness.


Our menu contains substantial amounts of meat, seafood and gluten.

You must be able to taste the food you're cooking!


WHAT YOU'LL GET

  • Extensive on-the-job training
  • Exposure to professional French culinary techniques
  • Experience in an upscale restaurant environment
  • Training in professional kitchen standards and organization
  • Opportunities to develop across multiple stations
  • A high-energy environment where motivated people can advance


You don't need to know everything. You need to be willing to learn.

If you're looking for a place to simply clock in and collect a paycheck, this probably isn't the kitchen for you.

If you want to build real culinary skills, learn professional standards, and become better every week, we'd like to meet you.


Apply with your availability, relevant experience (if any), and a brief explanation of why you feel you'd be a great candidate.
