Pros

Nice management. Lower tipout to busser and bar, so take home a larger portion of my tips than some other restaurants. Uniform flexible, any pants we want as long as we wear a Chuy's logo shirt (all emplyees get multiple in different colors). Customers are mostly nice and easy-going. There were also opportunities to move up and step into management for servers which was nice.

Cons

Low priced menu items, so lower tips in comparison to more expensive restaurants in the area. Sometimes was a lot of work for the pay (had sidework like cleaning machines and tables, then always had to refill chips and sauces and customers didn't pay for those unless it was queso so some of the labor felt "for free"
