Job description

Curry Up Now started in 2009 with a single food truck roaming the streets of Burlingame, CA. With great success and a fantastic team behind us, we’ve expanded to three food trucks, seven brick & mortar restaurants in the Bay Area (and growing!), three craft cocktail bars under the Mortar & Pestle brand, and we’ve started franchising across the United States! Toss in our Catering Operation, a Production Kitchen, and our Corporate Office, and we’ve become the biggest, baddest, fastest-growing Indian Food Brand on the PLANET! With locations open or under development in nearly every major region of the country, we are growing and bringing Indian Street Food to a city or town near you!

Even though we have great plans to continually expand in the future, we’re still a small company and will always be a small company at heart. This means that our people aren’t a faceless number to us. We cherish each and every team member as they really are the only reason we keep doing what we’re doing. Without our family and guests to support us, we are nothing.

It is our mission to CREATE EXTRAORDINARY EXPERIENCES and when you join the team at Curry Up Now or Mortar & Pestle Craft Cocktail Bars, you join our family.

So join us! …and be a part of something exciting, different, and EXTRAORDINARY!

We can’t wait to meet you!
