I don't know if there is any employee there that's been there longer than a month. When I say "high turnover" I mean HIGH turnover. Every time I go there, there are brand new employees, and they still don't have enough wait staff to handle the number of tables there, so they just - don't fill them all. Their customer base has dwindled because of it. Last time I was there I ordered over the phone for a pick-up. They said 20 minutes. I got there in around 15. I waited another 45 minutes for the order because they were backed up - with fewer than 10 tables occupied. They had two servers that shift, and one was standing in as hostess. I don't know what the manager was doing, or even if he was there at the time.
