At INVICTO, we want to do more than just serve delicioso tacos – we want to transport our guests on a Mexican vacation with our meals, our hospitality and the overall experience of eating in our restaurants.
We want our guests to experience the flavors of Tijuana with our traditional preparation methods alongside authentic spices and seasonings, ensuring a robust flavor in each and every bite. We use fresh corn masa to make our corn tortillas and our flour tortillas are made with lard. Our homemade salsas are packed with flavor and our refreshing aguas frescas are made with real fruit. And though we pay homage to authentic Mexican culinary experiences, we also want to stamp our guests’ gastronomic passports with some playful dishes from other regions, like the Cali-burrito or even our own Hot Cheetos burrito.
At INVICTO, what drives us every day is more than just serving delicious Mexican food. We are joining a movement that brings together food brands, nonprofits, and customers to provide nutritious school meals to children living in poverty around the globe. When you buy a meal at INVICTO, we provide a school meal to a child living in poverty. You eat, they eat. We’re rethinking the meaning of good food.
Finally, we are passionate about developing a team who shares our love for serving delicious food, our guests and the greater good. We want to make INVICTO a place where our entire team can grow, develop and succeed.
We're looking for a new General Manager who's ready to join an emerging restaurant brand on the ground floor.
