Sushi Line Cook - Full-time

Gekkō is a Japanese-inspired steakhouse and lounge from the minds of Groot Hospitality’s David Grutman and the recording artist Bad Bunny. Located in Miami’s thriving Brickell neighborhood, Gekkō immerses patrons in a fusion of elevated steakhouse surroundings with the modernity–and precision–of Japanese cuisine. Signature dishes include premium steak cuts, jaw-dropping sushi inventions, and delicious seafood appetizers. A bespoke cocktail program, an extensive wine list and bottle service offerings complement the menu. Gekkō’s aesthetic is lush, luxe and jewel-toned. With design accents like custom wallpaper, dark and rich palettes and hints of soft golden light, the restaurant transports visitors to an intimate, rare nocturnal world.
