TAG Restaurant Group

The ceo doesn’t live the core values he created to control people. The culture is a lie and they want you to believe it’s an “Ohana” (family) but it’s not. Poor decision making by the leaders because they are afraid to make a mistake leads to no decisions being made at all.  improper training and preparation for managers coupled with a complete lack of transparency within the company From the top make for a really tough place to work.  You will feel constantly in fear of losing your job and honestly it’s probably true if you oppose Troy in any way. Management turnover in this group is insane. Illogical and impractical goals That are constantly changing make it incredibly difficult to succeed and the owners lack of business acumen or ability to even understand simple things about running a restaurant are evident after the first few weeks of working. 

TAG has provided with me an enormous amount of growth the past two years. Being able to work in an environment that is constantly changing the food/beverage/wine menu is a challenge in itself. It teaches responsibility and ownership through its expectations. TAG has done this for me and so much more. I am fortunate to have worked for this company and what it has been able to offer me. I feel that I have gained a stronger work ethic and more knowledgeable expertise.

Despite my comment above this is a good place to work. Here i learned the art of sushi. The only issue i had there was they recommended that i come in early as we opened at 5pm and i was scheduled at 4 to make all the prep for the sushi station. The problem was they would not allow me to clock in toll 4pm. This position required several hours of preparation such as cleaning fish, making rice, and sauces etc..

Great company with amazing culture. Leadership role model the behaviors and coach you on how to improve. The company is growing and there are development opportunities. The most enjoyable part of the job are the team members and the culture. Management listens and supports. 

This company boasts Ohana and their 7 core values, but the reality is that the owners and upper management does not live them. The owner has earned a reputation for being stubborn and refusing to be contradicted, and this is for good cause. I was warned before starting by their own recruiter- and I should have listened. There are more successful restaurant groups where your personal time and family time will be respected.

Other than the pay rate and benefits. This job was actually fun and exciting with great people to work around. I learned a lot from others about the restaurant industry while employeed here. Great experience and easy transition into the restaurant industry for my first time.

Don't drink the "ohana" kool aid.
The Houston Guard and Grace was not prepared to open. Did not have spirits necessary for signature cocktails, limited bar tools only 15% of wine cellar stocked and most of all sub-par management team.
Not 3 months open and have already fired GM and Executive Chef. I'll be surprised if they make it through the summer.

This “Ohana” BS they try and teach save it . All of the trainers from Denver are stuck up and think they’re better than every one . Owner and his wife claim they’re here for you and we’re part of this ohana ; I don’t understand . Training was so intense and so much studying . Don’t waste your time applying here . Management doesn’t care about you either .

This company has made me feel at home since my first day. I really enjoy the ability to talk to my peers and enjoy the culture that they are curating here at TAG! Did I mention the food??? The pay/benefits and upper management all make me feel supported and like I am an integral part of the company. 

Everyone was very friendly and encouraging, and always willing to help if you had a question. Just leave your personal problems at home, and enjoy working at a place with an incredible kitchen and nice, hardworking foh.
