Needs Better Management

Pros

Great sense of comradery among employees, lots of contests (with prizes) to keep people motivated, ranks servers on a variety of things to improve customer service, easy to move up in the company, management is always willing to help out servers when they're overwhelmed

Cons

always lacks communication, management needs to have better training or ongoing training, always changing menu items, high turnover, everyone has a different sense of what is okay (chores, uniform, dishes, etc) and management doesn't comment on the inconsistency

Pros

There was a very small tip out to the bar and hosts, so most of the tips we got during a shift we could walk away with.

Cons

We went through many changes of management, few of whom were competent.

Pros

Managers are great and work around schedules. Managers are easy to talk to and treat you like friends and family.

Cons

Alot of drama with staff and cooks are rude and slow. Other than that its a great place to work.
