Line Cook – Royal Biryani House (Indian Cuisine)
Are you someone who thrives in a fast-paced kitchen, enjoys working with precision, loves collaborating with a tight-knit team, and takes pride in serving top-quality dishes? Join the team at Royal Biryani House, where we specialize in authentic Indian flavors — including our signature Hyderabadi biryani — and are looking for a motivated Line Cook to help keep our kitchen running smoothly.
If you have prior line cook or food service experience especially in Indian or other ethnic kitchens , great! If not — we’re still very interested in trainable candidates with the right attitude, willingness to learn, and commitment to high standards.
Key Responsibilities
Prepare and cook menu items with accuracy, speed, and attention to detail, following Royal Biryani House’s standards for Indian cuisine and presentation
Ensure each dish meets our quality, portion, and presentation expectations
Set up and maintain a clean, organized, and properly-stocked workstation, including prep, line and finishing stations
Follow food safety, sanitation, and health-code regulations at all times
Assist with prep work: chopping, portioning, marinating, rice preparation, spice blends, inventory rotation, and receiving deliveries as needed
Communicate clearly with kitchen teammates and front-of-house staff to coordinate efficient service during high-volume shifts
Stay calm, efficient, and collaborative during peak service periods; be a team player who jumps in wherever needed
What We’re Looking For
Previous experience working in a professional kitchen is preferred — experience with Indian cuisine, spice-rich dishes, rice-based cooking is a plus
Strong knife skills and familiarity with a variety of cooking methods (grilling, sautéing, deep-frying, rice dishes) and kitchen equipment
Ability to work efficiently under pressure, follow directions precisely, and multitask in a dynamic environment
Excellent time-management skills and a commitment to maintaining high standards of cleanliness, quality, and consistency
Dependable and punctual with a team-oriented mindset
Willingness to learn Indian culinary techniques, spice blends, and dish assembly if not already experienced
Why You’ll Love Working Here
A fast-paced, supportive kitchen environment where you can learn and grow
Competitive pay based on experience plus opportunities for advancement
Flexible scheduling to support your lifestyle and ambitions
Employee meals or discounts during shifts
A chance to work with authentic Indian flavors, learn traditional techniques, and build your culinary resume
