Melbourne, Victoria, Australia M-Hospitality Full time $60,000 - $120,000 per year

2022 Restaurant & Catering Association – Best Asian Restaurant in Victoria Winner

If you know Chapel Street, you know Mr. Miyagi. For over a decade, we've been serving long lines of hungry diners who can't get enough of our unapologetically unique Japanese fusion. We don't just put food on plates, we put theatre, flair, and bold flavours onto Chapel Street's map. Mr. Miyagi isn't just a restaurant; it's an institution.

Now, we're on the hunt for passionate chefs at all levels who want more than just a job as we grow the business even further... who want to be part of a team that thrives on creativity, energy, and pushing the boundaries.

What you'll be doing
  • Creating food that gets people talking.
  • Growing and refining your craft under some of Melbourne's most respected chefs.
  • Working in a high-volume, high-energy kitchen where excellence is the standard.
  • Being part of a crew that values collaboration, accountability, and fun.
What we're looking for
  • Solid technical ability. You should be confident in a busy kitchen, able to handle prep and service to a high standard.
  • Passion for flavour. If you love experimenting with bold, modern food (especially with Asian influence), you'll fit right in.
  • High standards. From presentation to consistency, you take pride in putting up dishes that make people say "wow."
  • Calm under pressure. We're a high-volume restaurant, so thriving in the rush is part of the job.
  • Team mentality. We back each other up, communicate clearly, and celebrate wins as a crew.
  • Growth mindset. Whether you're a commis looking to step up or a senior chef ready to mentor, you're hungry to learn and push forward.
  • Professionalism. Strong understanding of kitchen operations, food safety, and stock management.
  • Positive energy. A strong work ethic and "can-do" attitude that helps keep the kitchen buzzing.
Why you'll love it here
  • Career progression, fast. We don't sit still, and neither will your career.
  • Learn from the best. Our senior chefs are leaders in the industry.
  • Balance. We value work/life balance, with flexible rosters and day shifts available.
  • Great pay + perks. Competitive salary packages, share of tips, discounts across our venues, and priority seating when you dine out with us.
  • Culture that counts. We're high-energy, supportive, and obsessed with greatness.
  • Not just a job. This is the kind of experience you'll look back on as a career-defining chapter.

At Mr. Miyagi, we believe chefs should thrive in the kitchen and in life. If you want to be part of something bigger than just service, apply now and let's cook up the future together.
