Several months ago about August 2014 when my family was eating there I observed the following. When I went up to the back hot food bar with the ham, shrimp, steak, chicken, roast beef, etc... the lady back at the grill was busy cleaning the far grill down with a small clear/whitish bucket of soapy water that she was sticking her hands in that was a greyish/black color at this point. Then she suddenly stopped that and went right over and put steaks on the grill with SAME gloves on she was just cleaning with and THEN walked up to the bar and started picking up shrimp and food and putting them in the serving hoppers that the customers get their food! Again not changing her dirty gloves. When I tried to ask the hostess to speak to a Manager she had the attitude of "ok in a minute when I get to it". When I did talk to a Manager I saw her go and talk to the lady behind the grill who then finally changed her gloves and got mad and was shaking her head. The Manager NEVER came back over after a long wait to begin with so felt blown off about the whole thing. And the floors are always sticky around the food bars which is an indication they are using dirty mop heads.
