Who worked: LUNCH- Lindsey, Alex, Grace, Sayo (CL), Taylor (FR), John (SA), Tori (H)
DINNER- Lindsey, Camacho, Mandy, Ruthy, Clair (CL), John & Renee (H), Hiroe (FR), Gabe (SA)

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Lunch was busy. Lots of Tuesday regulars. It dropped off around 1pm when I cut Lindsey, the only double. There was steady wave of people after 1pm, so I kept 3 on until about 1:45. No long ticket times or customer issue.

Dinner was busy. Things could have run more smoothly from the sushi bar. Not sure what was going on today with the prep schedule but there were many things that were 86'd that were not properly communicated to staff when they were available again. Because Lee was doing all of the prepping, that allowed for some lag in rolls times. Nothing remarkable but still could have pushed out food faster. There was snag around 9pm, when rolls starting hitting 30 minutes. Zero Ban/Ichiban probably should have jumped in at that point. Had a couple tables stiff their servers because they were waiting.

On a consistent wait of 35-45 minutes for most of the night. I cut Lindsey at 8:45 will a full section, Jason Camacho at 9:15, and went/stayed two on at 9:45.

Specials: Japanese Uni, Snow Crab, Tsubugai

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): I checked the bathrooms before opening for dinner. Toilets not scrubbed. When I asked Renee to do it she played dumb. "That's a part of my job?" she asked. I pointed out where it said so on the opening duties. I sent out a message on hotschedules to all hosts about completing side work...and I'm not sure what changed. I am actively keeping on top of everyone concerning this.

Gabe could use some work on his speed. In the time it took him to wipe and reset one table, I had wiped and reset 4. While I appreciate his thoroughness, his sense of urgency is slightly lacking.

John seems eager and ready to cocktail on Sunday night!

Any VIP's in? A bunch of Tuesday lunch regulars, Leslie
