Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
So strange.....We didn't really pick up until about 8:15/8:30. So weird compared to the last 2 days where we were practically on wait by 7pm. We had 2 resos but also a 7 top walk in early on. I have seen them come in before and they are a really nice family, 4 younger kids, parents and nanny. They walked in at 5:45 and I told them if they could be out by 7pm for the 1st reso they could have the party room. They were super happy and said the kids have to go to bed soon anyways so it worked out perfectly. All other resos were good.
I had one incident tonight where a guy ordered a glass of wine while they were waiting to be sat. Normal. Then Krystin comes up to me and said she think that guy went and is sitting in his car drinking...Not normal. I go outside and up to the window, knock, and explain to them how it is illegal for them to be drinking wine in the car, WITH THE KEYS IN THE CAR AND THE CAR ON! Madness. I told them #1 its completely illegal (which took some explaining because neither of them believed me) and #2 they were on our property and I was not going to be liable for that.  I told them to come enjoy the patio or our lobby, and they did, but I waited and walked them inside to make sure they wouldn't just return to their car and start it back up while enjoying a glass of our wine. They stayed inside and there were no more problems.
At 9:15 I went 3 on. We were steady enough and everyone was in a good enough groove to take on more tables and everything went great. We had a great Friday night.
