Greek Restaurant jobs in Ontario

Johnny Greeko's serves bold Greek street food with a focus on fresh ingredients, fast service, and consistent quality. From stacked pitas and gyros to hearty bowls and crisp salads, everything is built to order and packed with flavour. It's the kind of food you crave on a busy day: quick, satisfying, and made with care.

As a Cashier / Crew Member at Johnny Greeko's, you're the face of the restaurant. You'll greet every guest, take orders accurately at the counter and on the phone, handle cash and card payments, and make sure every order is built, packed, and handed off complete and correct. You'll work the pita station, assembling pitas, gyros, bowls, and salads to our recipes and standards. You'll keep the front of house clean and welcoming, answer menu questions with confidence, and turn first-time visitors into regulars. Depending on the shift, you'll either open the restaurant (setting up the front, counting in your till, and getting the pita station ready for service) or close it (counting out, cleaning, restocking, and leaving everything ready for the next day). This position requires open availability, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. We're looking for dependable, friendly team players who enjoy working with people, pay close attention to detail, and take pride in great service.
