More details to this question:
I work at a restaurant and normally wait tables but recently had to work some in the kitchen. I worked, between the two, 11 hours of overtime. So my question is am I entitled to all the overtime if it's between two pay rates?

Yes. Overtime has nothing to do with the job function you do, it has simply to do with the number of hours worked in a given week. If you work 11 hours in one day, and still do not exceed 40 hours that week, you get no overtime pay.

The fact that your pay rate changes between the kitchen work and the service work does not affect your right to overtime.

Yes, you are entitled to overtime if you work more than forty hours in a work week for the same employer, even if you split your time between two or more non-exempt jobs.

You are entitled to overtime calculated by the amount of time you worked on each assignment.
