Pros

Had a great crew when I worked there. Everyone there ended up working together for almost a year. Back of House and Front of House got along well, and the management staff was able to switch between front and back of house which developed chemistry.

Cons

Typical negatives in restaurant life: Difficult hours at times, stressful during peak business hours, favoritism showed occasionally. Mostly positive experience.

Pros

Short drive, Half off food, Will work with you with your schedule.

Cons

GM unprofessional. Not appreciated for your experience and what u can bring to the table. Tips were poor. Poor customer base. Antiquated POS. No patience to train properly. Are bullies. Heating and AC do not work properly. Extreme favoritism. Do not recommend. Oh and if you didn't make your sales quota, u were told you would lose hours. If a table walked out without paying, they made u pay the difference. Callous, unprofessional, employees came last. Sales is all that matters.
