Line Cook

Join the team at Fountain Grains & Greens! Helmed by a chef with over 15 years experience in multiple Michelin starred kitchens.

At Fountain Grains & Greens, we believe food should be exceptional,

not just on a special night out, but every day. That’s why we’re committed to working with the absolute best farms and producers in California. From heirloom grains to sustainably raised meats and pristine seasonal produce, we source from the same (and often more exclusive) purveyors as LA’s top fine dining restaurants. Then, we bring that same quality to our guests in a casual, approachable way, no white tablecloths, no inflated prices.

Our mission is to democratize access to great food, food that respects the farmer, the worker, and the land. You shouldn’t have to spend $100 or book a reservation weeks out to taste the difference that thoughtful sourcing makes. We bring that experience to the grain bowl.

We operate exclusively during lunch and early dinner hours, focusing on takeout and delivery, with a streamlined menu of customizable bowls, salads, and grilled proteins made to order, as well as other seasonal offerings. Our menu evolves with the market- always fresh, always intentional.

We’re looking for team members who are :

Passionate about food and where it comes from

Excited to work with seasonal ingredients from the best local producers

Reliable, team-oriented, and eager to be part of a purpose-driven kitchen

Interested in being part of a growing, values-based concept

Whether you’re a seasoned kitchen pro or just starting out and ready to learn, if you care about real food and a positive work culture, we want to hear from you.
