Pros

Pretty decor. Cold restrooms.GM was nice...a little stiff, but nice.

Cons

Roaches everywhere. Dirty glasses, especially bar glasses with flies all over them. But, at least they come with free wine left on from the previous guest. Beverage trays are used to bus tables, so they are coated with week old food. Salads are tossed bare-handed, so enjoy that ecoli. Very little money for how much you will be running. Managers not very hospitable. Kitchen plays a lot, so good luck getting what your table needs. The worst place i have worked, in 18 years of hospitality. If you do like it, ignorance is bliss.
