Snooze – Who are we?

Morning people Yes, we are those
people. We are a full-service breakfast restaurant, and we want each morning to
feel like your weekend and happy hour rolled into one — no matter which side of
noon it’s on. We’re the place where you can be you, and where our regulars are
anything but. Everyone’s welcome at our table because the same goes for our
people as it does for our dishes: the unexpected twists are what makes them so
special.


The Sous Chef Role at Snooze

or BOH) you are responsible for ensuring the highest quality food and
standards. Your primary duties include maintaining all kitchen functions

ensuring guest satisfaction is being met consistently. Your overall goal is to
maintain the “WOW” factor of Snooze food, be creative, have fun, and be a role
