overcrowded restuarants?

i hate overcrowded restuarants, waiting to get your name on the list, waiting for your name to be called from the list, waiting to order, waiting for your drink, waiting for your food, waiting for your food, still waiting on your food, getting pissed, still waiting on your food, wait for 2nd drink, wait for desert, CHECK! I DONT CARE WHO BRINGS IT SOMEBODY GIVE ME MY FREAKING CHECK. But you really need to be more specific, i used to work in an overcrowded restuarant and thats just as fun. I was a bus boy, ending up refilling everyones drinks, taking food out, getting checks, never did get the dishes bused, on one night we almost ran out of clean dishes, (took half an hour for machine to clean em, used last clean dish 29 minutes into washing process)

It sounds like you need customers.  Good luck.

You need an appointment cause he sees so many customers coming that he needs to make room for you as well...\nLOL...Good one...

Wait tables in Washington DC?

Not in NYC. If that was the case, drive through restaurants would not be in business for long..i.e. McDonalds, etc.\n\nS.T.

Because they expect you to eat your food within 20 minutes and then get out.  If people just continue to come and go very quickly, there should always be empty tables even if there are a limited amount of floors.  Why build extra floors that won't get much use?

May be the company overload

I'd like a big helping of solitude with a few people on the side, please.   Could you hold the crowds though and just add some small groups?  Thanks.

We need a pizza delivery guy to take over at Uncle Vito's Pizza. Our old delivery guy was hit by a bus and doesn't seem to deliver the pies quite as fast as he used to. It's a crying shame that he lost a leg, but hey, we've got a business to run and people to feed.\n\nGive us a call the next time you are in San Francisco.

If you have a reservation, please be on time.\nIf you do not have a reservation, please don't take it as an insult if you see an empty table and you are not seated...that table may be reserved already.\n\nYou wait until you're actually ready to order before you begin ordering...a watress/waiter doesn't mind if you say "I think we need a few more minutes" but it drives them crazy if you make them stand there rewriting your order for 10 minutes because you have not decided.\n\nYou carry on your conversations in reasonable tones so that you don't cause other guests to complain.\n\nYou keep your children under control.\n\nIf you spill something, tell them...it's often easier to clean up a mess right away, even if it means reseating you.\n\nIf there is a problem, please say so but as politely as you'd want a problem brought to your attention.\n\nPay the check fairly soon after it arrives at the table, even if you will linger over an after dinner drink for another half hour...this allows for the bookkeeping tasks to be done while you linger.\n\nLeave if you notice that "closing up" tasks are being done...candles blown out on other tables, cleaning up the waitstation...let them get off work on time.\n\nTip decently and say thank you.

Well, the first time would be questionable, but if the coffee was good I'd definitely be stopping again!!  You might want to make sure that the people below you aren't going to mind all the traffic overhead though. . . because if I'm coming back for seconds I'm bringing a crowd.  But hey, where exactly do you live because that might pose a problem with me getting to work on time!  Not to mention the soaring gas prices!!\n\nGood Luck in your business venture.  Let me know when your grand opening is scheduled!!

THE STAFF!!  I have worked in restaraunts since I was 15 and I must say that if your staff isnt GREAT CHIPPER UPBEAT And ready to deal with the JERKS that walk in then you restaraunt wont do well either!  You need to establish a 'regualr' customer base and really get the word out.  2/3 businesses dont make it past the first year due to going into the hole.  Make sure that you are prepared to losse money your first year in order to provide promotions and specials to the public to get them into the restaraunt.  Make sure that since this is your first atempt that you only hire experienced servers and cooks.  This will not be the place to train new employees!  Make sure to set a budget for each month and make sure that you stay within it!!  I helped open a restarant in St. Charles MO and they are now making a killing off the business so this is where I get my info from.  Make sure also that who you have doing to books and all is someone who you TRUST!!  Accounting is a huge part as well!!  Make sure that you like all of the food that you serve cause if you dont like it and you wont eat it chances are that the public wont either.  Any time that you try a new dish serve it as a specail once or twice a week for about a month to see what the responce is to it first.  Have your staff taste things as well they will be your most honest critics!!  Cause they wont want to serve something that they cant sell... you have to think that servers make money directly off of your products.\n\nOh and feel free to IM me at justone_girl on yahoo.  I would love to help you out any more if I can

Their server might be down or saturated.

DON'T DO THIS!!! The last thing you need is to export the idea of conspicuous consumption to a place where having enough to eat is an area of major concern!!!

I went last year the week after Memorial Day. It wasn't crowded at all. My cousin works there, so we get in cheap. Tickets are not very expensive though.

there was a huge lawsuit and they had to stop filming due to impending lawsuit stuff, i also wonder whatever happened to the actual restaurant, i am unsure if it stayed open, but i doubt it.\n\nso i asked my friend and it DID close down due to the lawsuit. it was with that jeffery guy who co-owned it with him.
