Job Description

Ask for Luigi began with a story - the kind Italians love to tell over a good meal. It’s the story of a friend of a friend who says, “When you go there, you have to ask for Luigi.” And when you do, you’re welcomed like family. That spirit of connection, warmth, and genuine hospitality lives at the heart of everything we do. Tucked into Railtown, Luigi is a Michelin-recommended restaurant serving Italian-inspired dishes rooted in the philosophy of cooking with what the earth provides.

We’re looking for an Executive Chef to carry that spirit forward, someone who leads with generosity, creativity, and curiosity. You’ll collaborate with our dedicated team to craft thoughtful, ingredient-driven menus and uphold the quality and warmth that make Luigi a Vancouver favourite. As part of Kitchen Table Group, you’ll join a family of chefs and restaurateurs who believe in honest food, meaningful experiences, and the stories we tell through them.

You have:

  • A passion for food, cooking, leadership and mentorship
  • 2+ years experience in a similar role
  • Menu development experience is an asset
  • A proven track record managing food cost, labour and inventory management
  • Knowledge of Italian aperitivi, food and wine considered an asset
  • A calm, confident, and kind presence
  • Food Safe Level 1 required

What we offer:

  • Base salary + gratuities + KT Bonus Program + paid vacation (posted range is base salary only)
  • 50% off dining at all Kitchen Table restaurants and cafes (for up to four guests!)
  • Extended health benefits, including vision and dental
  • A supportive, positive work environment
  • Growth and advancement potential

Kitchen Table Group (Ask for Luigi, Di Beppe, Pourhouse, and more!) is a growing collection of neighbourhood restaurants, cafés, and gathering places built on one simple belief: food brings people together, but hospitality is what people feel and remember. We exist to inspire human connection — to create spaces that feel warm, personal, and deeply cared for, where teams are proud of the work they do, and guests feel genuinely welcomed.

We can’t wait to meet you—apply now and let’s create something amazing together!

About Ask For Luigi


Ask for Luigi is a casual and intimate Italian-inspired restaurant, specializing in fresh hand made pasta.

We also have an amazing house made gluten free options available daily. All menu items are available for dine-in or take-out.

So come to the little house on the corner of Alexander and Gore and Ask for Luigi- they'll take good care of you.

We are part of Kitchen Table Group, with restaurants including Pourhouse, Di Beppe, Pizzeria Farina, Farina A Legna, Carlino, Caffe Super Veloce and Giovane Caffe and Bacaro.

This is your chance to join an expanding restaurant group with lots of room for growth, development and advancement.
