03/07/2025 - Chattanooga, TN
Pros
The people they employ are mostly incompetent, but management is mostly nice.
Cons

If you like stress, work here
03/06/2025 - Southlake, TX
Pros
They like to promote within the company
Cons
Many of their restaurants are dirty and falling apart, but instead of really fixing them they keep spending money on opening new locations. The menu is too big and they don’t hire skilled cooks, which leads to a lot of quality issues. The kitchen staff can’t handle the volume and complexity of the recipes, which leads to stress for the front of house staff who is constantly apologizing to their guests.
Decent money, clientele could be better
03/03/2025 - Huntersville, NC
Pros
- Typical chain, steady crowd but food isn't all that great- Auto gratuity on 8+ party- Sidework and cleanup at the end of the night is easy
Cons
- Only good money if you get put in good sections- Clientele isn't great
