CHEF – Commis/CDP

Yoko Dining is a Japanese restaurant inspired by our love of fun, high-energy Tokyo Izakayas. Split over two levels, the ground floor’s energetic atmosphere is enhanced by kitchen views and a deck that overlooks Brisbane River and the city skyline. Upstairs, our vinyl bar is a hidden spot for late-night vibes, fun events and good times.

Our modern approach to Japanese food is complemented by a smashable cocktail list and Japanese beverages. Situated in the heart of Howard Smith Wharves, a destination dining precinct, we aim to create a place for guests and travellers alike to be transported and recharge amongst the energy of buzz of our restaurant. Importantly, Yoko is a place for people to return to time and time again. We have a strong following of regular clientele who go out of their way to visit us for a good time.

Looking after our guests is what we do, and we believe that by fostering a fun and supportive work environment, our staff are able to do what they do best: provide amazing service that keeps people coming back. If this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, we’re currently looking for passionate CHEFS to join our team.
