Pros

Great atmosphere and product as well as an amazing concept. This place is great. Learned a lot and had time for a personal life.

Cons

Totally commercial. It's like the Disney of Italian food. Hectic is an understatement. They pay poorly, offer poor benefits, and don't hold staff or managers to any standard. They'll hire anyone which isn't good.

Pros

Amazing managers who listen and care for their employees

Cons

None! Best job I’ve had and would work there 100% hands down if I still lived in the city. It gets insanely busy but it comes with the territory

Pros

Decent community and work environment, huge team so you’ll definitely meet some interesting people. Good for gaining early experience in the restaurant industry

Cons

Volume is unpredictable and inconsistent, so you have to be prepared to either be in the weeds with minimal assistance from management or ready to idle for 3 hours with two walk-ins per hour and no reservations. And the tourists are exceptionally insufferable here
