Great Money, good coworkers ....Poor Management, Untrained Host

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great Money, Moderate Hours, Hard working Servers, Cooks , Backwaiters.

Cons

Poor training for host; they are often young and don't know how to rotate tables well. Restaurant is often short staffed (especially at lunch) and then managers wonder why there are bad yelp reviews (Hint: Too few servers + huge/ unfairly portioned sections (thanks tip pool!!) + too few poorly trained managers = UNHAPPY GUEST). Restaurant is also often out of multiple beverages at a time as well as supplies. The family meal is decent but its truly a coin flip if its gonna be good or make you sick.
