THE KITCHEN INITIATIVE: 2% KITCHEN APPRECIATION GRATUITY

Starting in July 2023 we are suggesting a 2% Kitchen Appreciation Gratuity that goes directly to our kitchen staff. 

This Gratuity supports our kitchen staff's hard work & it allows our kitchen staff to share in the restaurant's success. 

This appreciation gratuity goes directly to our line cooks, dishwashers & prep staff. It does not represent a gratuity for the dining room staff.

This GRATUITY IS COMPLETELY VOLUNTARY. 

If you do not wish to pay it, please let your server or bartender know & we will remove it.  

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Common Question: Why should the guest pay this gratuity instead of just giving the kitchen staff a raise?

Answer: In order to keep our menu costs at a reasonable rate, we decided to add on this Gratuity instead. So instead of raising prices $1-2 on many items, this Gratuity does not hit your wallet nearly as hard. For instance, on a $100 tab if we were to raise the cost by 1-2 per item, your tab would be closer to $106-110, versus the $102 with this system now. 

Plus its a great moral boost to our hard working crew!

Attire

  Smart, respectful ATTIRE is encouraged for both men & women 

Gentlemen, shirts with sleeves are required - no tank tops or cut-off shirts

We also consider flip flops & team jerseys too casual for our restaurant & are strongly discouraged


RETURNS

While we acknowledge that mistakes happen & we are happy to correct any errors made by our staff. 

However, we do not enjoy throwing away properly made food or drinks, simply because you

"do not like it" or "it's not what you thought it would be". 

So to prevent any issues, please inform your server before you order if you have a sensitive palate

(this includes cocktails & food) or specific dietary needs (gluten, celiac, allergies, etc...)


DINING GUIDELINES​

While we consider special requests, modifications cannot always be honored as they can impact the flow

of our kitchen and the integrity of many dishes.

--------------------------------------------------

Please notify us of any allergies. We are very concerned for your well-being and not all ingredients are listed on the menu.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Please be respectful of those around you - we request any cell phone conversations be taken to the lobby or outside.

------------------------------------------------------------

Out of consideration for other guests who are waiting to be seated, we may ask to move your group to

an available bar table if a significant amount of time has passed. We typically will never make this

request short of 30 minutes after you've completed your dining experience
