Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Tonight started off to a good start. We used the new seating method but really didn't need to, for once. Everyone was either complete or seconds behind each other so it was fine! By 8pm we were already on a decent wait of an hour for a table. We had a mix of 2 tops, 4 and two 6, a 7, and a 9. quote times were on point and no one had a problem with the wait times, seemed like our usual crowd who were happy waiting an hour or more for a table.
We had a 6:30 reso of a really nice women, industry worker, who had most of her party stuck in ACL traffic. Her party ended up being 5 not 10, which sucked but she was really appologitic. I let them sit with the "pinky promise" others were coming. I said she had to be in and out by 8 pm for the next reso and she wanted to start ordering food. They had a good bill dispite 1/2 their party not showing up and she promised if they make a reso again to really coordinate......... This would have been more irritating if the other large parties had no where to be sat with outrageous wait times, but everyone was really happy. The next reso was here right at 8pm, actually like 7:50 ready to be sat. We didn't get them in until about 8:09 due to clean up and set up, but once they got in the room they were happy.
There was some confusion with the Kitchen Special 1&2 buttons tonight. Vince and I talked earlier about having KS1 being ceveche and KS2 being the new pork dish and moving the Iwashi to tempura special (since it was in the fry station anyways)...made sense, everyone was on board with the changes, but I think somewhere along the line Daniel wasn't informed about the KS2 changing to the pork special so we mad a misring Iwashi, but after that we got it all straightened out.

Specials?
KS1- Ceveche 13
KS2 - Pork special 11
Tempura Special/Iwashi-
Cheesecake-1

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Ruthy did great alone tonight, she was trying to be more warm to guests
Sayo is doing great as one of our newer highers. She can really hold her own on a busy Friday night!
