Flow of Business:
Lunch: Business had a unpredictable flow. We never went on a wait, but we would fill up, and then die. Had about three rounds of that.
Dinner: Similar to last night. Line at the door when we opened. We went on a wait by 620, and stayed that way until 950. Had a couple of issues that led to comps. One was a 3 top that was upset about being texted after 20 minutes of waiting to be asked if they would be willing to sit at the sushi bar. Apparently the same thing happened to them last time. When I spoke to her she said why wouldn't you just ask when you're putting the name on the wait. Fair point. They also went about 10 minutes past their wait time. Bought them a couple of appetizers, and they were happy in the end. Had another table wearing orange that had obviously been drinking all day. They sat ordered a bottle of wine from stephanie, and I told them we wouldn't be serving them any alcohol tonight. They didn't put up much of an argument with me, ordered a couple of apps, and then got upset as they thought about it bit more, then left. Had to comp the apps.
