Cons

ticket avgs suck, old people with 20 percent off cards,15-20 items under 10 dollars that are often split by ghetto ass people that dont tip and want extra everything and more of it!!russians are a big majority of customers and dont tip but 1-2 dollars here and there..

Pros

You can definitely count on a stable income, if you're on the good side of management you will have a great team standing behind you, easy atmosphere to create your own regulars, short shifts, food is great.

Cons

Takes care of the guests way too much. Way too many discounts for the guest I.e. senior discount, safari, $7 off after only $25, buy one get one at lunch time, 2 for $20. Might as well work at Applebee's? With sales at $1000 before discounts, it broke my heart see a whopping $625 after discounts, yet I can only get 50% off my select food items (chix entrees and burgers) if I ate at the restaurant and only 25% on my day off. No discount on Togo. Ever think I don't want to be in the restaurant anymore than I already am!? Turn over rate is very high, which creates the high labor because we have to slowly cut the floor to now over whelm new servers. Long story short, elephant bar tries to act like a high end restaurant but is barely a step up from Applebee's. -__-
