Kitchen Appreciation

We recently initiated a 3% kitchen appreciation for parties up to 9 guests to acknowledge our kitchen staff’s hard work, to start the process of bridging the historical wage gap between front/back of the house.

The fee will be applied to each guest check to allow our kitchen staff to share in the restaurant’s daily successes. This has now become a common mechanism restaurants are using to allow for some of the kitchen’s compensation to be directly tied to how hard they are working.

This fee does not represent a tip, gratuity, or service charge for our front of house staff. We have implemented this practice to keep up with the rising cost of living, and to help provide a better living wage for our kitchen staff by structuring a more equitable distribution of your dining dollars.

We appreciate your support in recognizing our back of house employees’ hard work, and their commitment to our high standard of quality every day. We certainly hope you will feel (and taste!) the positive impact of a happy kitchen who feels appreciated by their community.

Please note for parties of 10 or more guests, kitchen appreciation is 6%.

If you’d like to discuss this with a manager, please feel free to give us a call at 781-219-3871, Tuesday-Friday between 11-5. Thank you for your continued patronage and support!
