Head Chef

About the job

The re-introduction of a classic. Our client was a food driven dive bar that existed along the Old Cutler Corridor near Snowdens Bridge for a majority of the 1900’s and was unfortunately lost due to a building code violation. A team of local investors (Native Miamians) have reimagined the experience and intend to provide an elevated and imaginitive Food & Beverage experience for the surrounding communities. Our vision is to reacquaint the surrounding Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, Cutler Bay, Coral Gables, and South Miami communities with real Old Miami Charm.

This concept is the go-to destination for a food and beverage in Palmetto Bay, offering a modern yet nostalgic environment rooted in local history. Combining upscale contemporary American cuisine with a full liquor menu, we provide the perfect blend of great food and classic cocktails in an inviting atmosphere with the occasional sports game for those coming by car, golf-cart, bicycles or foot.

Budget: Open Depending on Experience

Bonus Potential: Yes
