Pros

None. Literally nothing about that place is positive.

Cons

This is the worst place to work in Toronto I promise you. Very toxic environment and you will never feel good enough to please the management or Chef Lee. They verbally abuse the staff and pick and choose who they want to move up and pay more. They show signs of racism as well and If you ever dine into the restaurant you will notice the FOH are mostly white staff. The people cleaning your tables and bringing you food are people of colour. The runners do 70% of the job to run the restaurant but get paid the least and servers don’t really do much and get paid more. It’s not hard serving there lol. They steal tips from everyone since it’s a pool shared system and they have already been caught multiple times in the act. They bully the staff and make us feel like we will never be good enough. - You don’t make me money - Your mental health will be effected - Too much work - Cheap environment The staff room is disgusting and we get no discounts on food. Also. The place is infesting with cockroaches. Save yourself time and go find a normal serving job because you will make more working somewhere else in 2 days than you will ever make in this place.
