Join Our Team
Recipe Philly is a full-service restaurant built around a simple idea: family recipes are worth preserving and sharing. Our menu comes from a citywide competition and accompanying reality TV series. Real dishes from real Philadelphia families, brought to life in a professional kitchen.
The food has a story. The experience and the team behind it should too. We call it Heirloom Hospitality.
All positions include competitive compensation, industry-leading benefits, and monthly bonuses for leadership roles. If you don't see your position listed, send your resume anyway. We're building something the city hasn't seen before, and we'd rather have the right people than wait for the right posting.
