Soooo.... this is what businesses need to understand. It\'s not only about your product, it\'s about your staff. Amongst other things like cleanliness and how you feel being there.
Everyone of your staff communicates in their actions and demeanour. The Sugarland Tavern staff take pride in what they do and it shows. While I was being served at the bar, 2 others asked if I was being served. This was each time I went up to get a drink. One young staff member was making sure everything was well stocked and not standing around. Well done !
The kitchen staff were also attentive. Jenny greeted us with a smile and asked where we would like to sit, directed us to menus, and guided us with what we\'d like to order. The staff worked as a team and helped each other. Hannah was one of those who complimented her team with offering to help when others were busy. She wiped over the salt and pepper and everything on the table after each sitting.
During our time there, Jenny came and spoke to us and ensured everything was ok. She took the time to speak and connect with us. She alone is such an asset to this business.
The food was fantastic. $18 for a perfectly cooked steak, sauce, chips, and salad with a really nice dressing. The Kiwi Savignon Blanc topped it off nicely. The steak sandwich was beautiful and not skimped.
Well done, guys ! You nailed it. Every one of you ! Even had live music ! Very impressive!
