Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch: Started slow, picked up around 11:45/12, went on a very brief wait mostly because everyone was incomplete, then it just stayed steady until about 1pm. Cut Naoto at that time, it continued to slow, then cut Lindsey. The usual rush of the 1:30 lunch crowd rolled around and that was that.

Dinner:Happy hour started off strong and we came close to filling up, but it slowed down around 5:45. Then picked back up around 6:30pm Went on a wait. Had a bunch of 3s and 4s, then around 8:30 it was all 2s. Stayed on a wait until 9:40 with some walk in 5 tops. Cut down to 2 on at 9:30. Sayo and Sophia closed it down.

Specials:
Hama toro and Sake Toro Carpaccio


3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Cindy did well on her first solo shift on the floor. She was a little nervous at the start. Only had two mistakes, a misring for a croquette (she said she verified with the table but once it arrived they denied it) and a void for a misring. Other than that she did great.
-Maverick and John hosting tonight. I was a little nervous but they did really well. I made any drinks that got ordered since Maverick said he only had one CT training shift and didn't feel confident in making drinks yet. He asked for another CT training shift.
-John is just super friendly and personable at the host stand.

Any VIP's in?
Lunch: Kaila, our serendipity rep.
Dinner: Matt & Julie and their kid. Ransom was in solo.

Promo Kome Bucks.

R&M needs:
The cork board near the bathrooms fell on some one first thing this morning. Not a huge deal, but the screw on the left is not fully anchored into the wall, so that's what lead to it falling out a bit.
