Our restaurants are open seven days a week.  Due to the nature of our business, there are never any “set" schedules and schedules vary and hours may change each week. Hours can increase depending on the following conditions: staffing levels, opportunity, new openings, and the management team's performance. Our concept is customer driven and centered, with all managements spending a great deal of time in the dining room during rushes, and being working-managers during slower times.  We are a very hands-on company who tries to lead by example. Our management team supervises, mentors, and works directly with our valued staff members on a daily basis in order to coach, grow, and develop our people and our restaurant.  

*Work schedule set weekly at supervisor discretion and includes weekends and nights.
