Our neighborhood Raw/Oyster Bar is open year-round, with peaks during the summer and holiday season. We are looking for a motivated Food Prep/Line Cook to support our small but growing menu. The menu showcases the stunning seafood the Maine Coast has to offer. We are a fast-growing locally owned business with plenty of room for career growth and development.
