Tasty choices & good vibes are what we’re all about. Our line cooks are responsible for helping us craft high quality menu items that directly impact the guest experience. At Cali, we respect the food and the process and if it’s not great, we don’t’ serve it. Your focus is to ensure that we’re serving our guests products that live up to the quality and food safety standards that we pride ourselves on. At Cali, our purpose is to create a menu and vibe that’s both good for the people and the planet. We want our people to have a balanced life, opportunities to grow, and to find purpose and meaning in what they do.
