What they need
Rare Society is seeking an Executive Sous Chef for our acclaimed steakhouse.
WHO WE ARE: TRUST Restaurant Group is a San Diego-based hospitality collective helmed by Chef Brad Wise. Beloved in America’s Finest City, TRUST Restaurant Group’s portfolio includes five distinct concepts that run the gamut from fine dining to a butcher shop to an ice cream window. Countless accolades, including a Michelin Plate Award and Conde Nast Traveler nod, has cemented the group’s status as one of the premier groups operating in Southern California today.
EXPANSION PLANS: TRUST Restaurant Group’s expansion plans focus around our steakhouse concept, Rare Society. An homage to the infamous Las Vegas steakhouse, the restaurant highlights premium proteins, grilled atop an open flame using American red oak, in a nod to Chef Wise’s love of the Central Coast-style of cooking. Iconic sides, impeccably crafted cocktails and fine wine, and classic seafood dishes round out the culinary and spirits program.
The restaurant seeks to create a new tier of steakhouse - one that fits into the “approachable fine dining” mold. We seek to be a neighborhood concept that appeals to the special occasion and everyday diner. Service is refined; the dress code, not so much. Rare Society’s design is elevated, with touches of glitz and glam, but also comfortable, with plush leather booths, velvet bar seats, and custom art installations.
Rare Society is a brand that has ambitious expansion plans. Expect multiple locations in the coming years. This is an opportunity to join a growing collective with national growth potential. If you think you’d be a fit, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
