      Pros

      Coworkers and managers were good people to work for. Overall a friendly setting between people.

      Cons

      In 2011-2012 the company removed salary increases from bussers and bartenders, substantially dropping pay. Company doesn't seem to value workers, or want to stop high turnover.
