Camelia, a chef-driven French Japanese bistro recently opened in the Arts District, seeks a full-time team member for a dining room position. Tsubaki and OTOTO, our first two restaurants are located in Echo Park. Tsubaki has maintained the Michelin Guide's Bib Gourmand designation as well as consistent recognition in the LA Times 101 Best Restaurants list for many years, and OTOTO was honored in 2023 with a James Beard award for Outstanding Beverage Program.
The ideal candidate will have experience in a full-service restaurant, knowledge of (or even just excitement about) food, wine, and sake, excellent communication skills, and a great sense of teamwork. We pride ourselves on offering warm, genuine hospitality to all our guests, and aim to create longlasting relationships with our neighbors and frequent visitors.
Camelia's menu showcases French cuisine while weaving in Japanese flavors, with a focus on farmers market produce and both local and Japanese fish. Beverage knowledge is not required - we will happily teach! - but an interest in wine or other beverages is a great plus. Lots of opportunity to taste and learn, and we place great importance on providing opportunities for growth.
We operate on a tip pool system and offer fully paid medical benefits after 90 days to full-time employees (25+ hours per week).
