Screw that place, they treat their workers, vendors and occasional bands like absolute crap.

I worked there for a while, as did many of my friends. They treat you like you are trying to steal from them or get over on them in every interaction. They threatened us physically a lot. They don’t care if your sick in bed or injuried, you have to come in. like way more crazy then any other restaurant I’ve worked. They lie to their workforce when it comes to pay, days off, and are shady af when it comes to payroll. Bands complain all the time that they are offered pay for events and then are offered a few beer tickets at the end of the night instead of agreed upon cash. I still have nightmares from that place.
