Who worked: LUNCH- Grace, Clair, Krystin, Johnny (CL), Junko (H), Hiroe (FR), Taylor (SA)
DINNER- Grace, Krystin, Ruthy, Dusten, Camacho (CL), Maverick & Chelsea (H), Hiroe (FR), Kaori (SA)

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Lunch was slow. Nothing special. Cut Grace at 1, Clair at 1:30, and Krystin at 1:45. No long ticket times or customer issue.

Dinner was the opposite. Filled up and on a wait by 6:30. Lots of bigger spenders...nirigi, sashimi, and an amazing amount of alcohol bottles sold. Average wait time was 30-40 minutes for most parties. Stayed on a wait until 9:30. I cut Grace and Krystin at this time but kept three on since it was so busy. Didn't cut the hosts until right at closing time.

Only one customer issues: a 4 top at B7 waited 30 minutes for their superstar roll...they had all of their other food already and were pretty fussy. Grace spoke to them and I did as well, explaining that the sushi bar got hit hard. They seemed displeased. Caught the roll before it was made and gave them Kome Bucks for next time, which smoothed things over.

Specials: Rainbow Roll, Snow Crab nigiri

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Much improvement from Maverick this evening overall. He ran the board smoothly while Chelsea cocktailed. Quote times were good. He showed initiative by helping the SA in his downtime.

Chelsea did a great job cocktailing, selling over $500. I helped her a bit and explained the finer points of our beverage menu.

Ruthy was amazing tonight! Sales through the roof and NOT A SINGLE MISTAKE! I gave her a mantis massage card. Great job!

And I'll need another tutorial on the new check outs. I'm not sure I'm doing this properly since the safe is off by $100. I'm not sure what number to enter for the closer even after they've calculated the tipout.  Sales are accurate in the spreadsheet.
