Job Type: Full-Time / Part-Time

About Iqbal Kebab: For over 25 years, Iqbal Kebab has been Toronto’s premier destination for authentic, 100% Halal South Asian and Pakistani cuisine. Known for our spacious surroundings, welcoming family atmosphere, and traditional live BBQ, we pride ourselves on serving high-quality dishes like our signature Seekh Kebabs, Biryanis, Karahis, and traditional tandoori specialties. We are looking for an experienced, passionate Cook to join our busy kitchen team and help us carry forward our long-standing culinary tradition.

Job SummaryAs a Cook at Iqbal Kebab, you will play a central role in preparing and executing our authentic Pakistani and South Asian menu. You will operate the grill, tandoor, and traditional cooking stations to prepare meals efficiently during busy lunch, dinner, and weekend breakfast rushes while keeping a high standard of quality, flavor, and food safety.

Key Responsibilities

  • Food Preparation & Cooking: Prepare, season, and cook authentic menu items including beef/chicken seekh kebabs, tandoori tikka, biryanis, curries (karahi, nihari, paya), and wraps according to standard recipes.
  • Station Management: Safely set up, operate, and maintain kitchen equipment, specifically live grills, tandoor ovens, and deep fryers.
  • Mise en Place: Wash, chop, slice, and marinate 100% HMA-certified Halal meats, vegetables, and spices to ensure the line is fully stocked for service.
  • Quality & Presentation: Plate dishes cleanly, checking that portion sizes, sides, sauces (raita, imli), and presentations match Iqbal Kebab standards before serving.
  • Food Safety & Cleanliness: Follow strict health and food safety regulations. Keep your workstation clean, sanitized, and organized, and ensure proper storage and rotation of food supplies.
  • Teamwork: Work alongside prep cooks, kitchen helpers, and front-of-house staff to ensure orders are completed accurately and on time in a high-volume restaurant environment.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Experience: 1–3+ years of professional kitchen experience, ideally in a fast-paced South Asian, Pakistani, or Middle Eastern restaurant environment.
  • Culinary Knowledge: Deep familiarity with Pakistani/Indian spices, marinating processes, and traditional cooking styles (live charcoal grilling and tandoor operation is a major asset).
  • Fast-Paced Endurance: Ability to stand for long periods, lift heavy kitchen items (up to 50 lbs), and stay focused under high-pressure rushes.
  • Team-Oriented: A cooperative attitude with strong communication skills in English (Urdu, Hindi, or Punjabi is an asset).
  • Reliability: Punctual and flexible to work various shifts including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays.

What We Offer

  • Competitive hourly wages based on experience.
  • Meal discounts on our authentic menu items.
  • A supportive, fast-paced, and energetic community environment.
  • Stable hours with a business that has been a community fixture for a quarter-century.
