After months of planning, construction, and countless decisions, we’re finally ready to build the team that will bring North Eight to life.

We’re looking for people who take pride in hospitality, enjoy working hard, and want to be part of something from the very beginning.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you.

Interviews begin this week.

Visit NorthEightKitchen.com , send a resume to [email protected] or stop by and introduce yourself.

Let’s build something special together.

A little behind-the-scenes look…

Over the last couple of weeks, our team has been busy playing with ideas in the Benstein Grille kitchen as we continue building the menu for North Eight.

Some dishes will evolve. Some won’t make the cut. Some might surprise us. That’s the fun (and challenge) of creating something from scratch.

Every plate gets tasted, tweaked, argued over, plated again… and hopefully gets a little better each time.

We can’t wait to share the final lineup with you. Until then, here’s a sneak peek at a few of the ideas coming together.

YES CHEF. 👨‍🍳🍽️

Everyone gets excited about the steaks, cocktails, and beautiful dining room… and trust us, so do we.

But when you’re opening a restaurant from scratch, it’s funny what starts getting you excited.

A branded pen. ✔️
A mop sink. ✔️
Cleaning chemicals. ✔️
A working espresso machine. ✔️
A soda fountain. ✔️
A POS station. ✔️
Even… a toilet. 😂

Every little delivery means one less thing on the checklist and one giant step closer to opening our doors.

It’s the little things… until they become everything.

We can’t wait to welcome you to North Eight.

It’s finally starting to feel like a real restaurant.

After months of demolition, construction, and chaos, we’re now revealing the heart of North Eight—our kitchen—and it’s all coming together.

Our kitchen is coming together, and we couldn’t be more excited.

This isn’t just a room full of stainless steel. It’s where ideas become dishes, where our team will put in countless hours, and where we hope to create meals you’ll celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, date nights, and random Tuesday dinners over.

The equipment is here, the finishing touches are happening, and every day we’re getting one step closer to opening our doors.

Now for the important question…

Who’s volunteering to do the dishes on opening weekend? 😄

Thank you for following this journey and cheering us on. We can’t wait to show you what’s coming out of this kitchen very soon.

The new window wall is being installed today, and we think this little smiley face is feeling exactly how we are.

Excited. Nervous. Impatient.

Mostly impatient. 😂

We can’t wait to pull back the curtain and welcome everyone inside North Eight. Until then, we’ll keep sharing the progress as we get closer to opening day.

Who’s ready to take a look inside?
