Fancypants is East Nashville’s playful, vegetable-forward fine dining restaurant from the Honest to Goodness Hospitality team (Butcher & Bee, Redheaded Stranger). Since opening in July 2024, we’ve earned a reputation for cooking that’s creative, seasonal, and seriously delicious—served in a space where fine dining is a little less serious and a lot more fun.

We’re looking for experienced line cooks to join Chef Matthew Meeker’s kitchen. You’ll cook over a custom wood-burning Grill by Demant, work with produce from local farms, and help execute a prix fixe menu that changes with the seasons. If you care about craft, want to grow, and actually want to enjoy your days off—keep reading.

The Schedule

We’re open Thursday through Sunday nights only. That means 2–3 full days off every week—real days off, not the kind where you’re back at 7 AM the next morning. 

What You’ll Do

  • Execute nightly service on your assigned station with consistency and precision
  • Prep seasonal, vegetable-forward dishes using ingredients from local farms and purveyors
  • Cook over live wood fire on our Demant grill—managing heat, timing, and flavor
  • Maintain your station to the highest standards of cleanliness, organization, and food safety
  • Collaborate with the kitchen team to refine and evolve the menu

What We’re Looking For

  • A genuine passion for food, ingredients, and the craft of cooking
  • Professional line cooking experience in a from-scratch kitchen
  • Strong knife skills and a solid grasp of cooking fundamentals
  • Knowledge of food safety, sanitation, and proper handling practices
  • The ability to stay organized, take direction, and work calmly under pressure

Why Fancypants

  • Competitive hourly wage with weekly pay
  • Group health plans for full-time team members
  • Employer-matched IRA 
  • Parental leave savings match program
  • 4-day work week—Thursday through Sunday only
  • Real career growth—most of our sous chefs and chefs have come up from within 
  • An open kitchen built around a custom wood-burning grill and wood-burning oven
  • A culture that takes the food seriously, but not itself

Our Values

  • Include & Empower People. We value diversity and equitable opportunities for our team and community
  • Foster Connection Through Food. We source locally, cook seasonally, and create shared experiences that connect people to their food’s journey.
  • No Detail Is Too Small. World-class and unpretentious aren’t opposites. We major in the minor details.
  • Make a Real Impact. We use our platform to support positive change in our industry and communities.
