Five years of shift narrative from every dining room at Augusta Country Club.
Smooth service overall for a Thursday night two for one. Patio was packed as anticipated and everyone had a great experience. Taylor, Valentine and Caroline were all great behind the bar and floor servers were all on task and attentive. Shout out to Maria for sticking through the rush and getting the evening started off on a great note
Dinner started off on the slower side tonight but picked up around 6:30, bringing in a nice flow of guests. The McDaniels joined us for dinner and shared nothing but positive feedback about both the food and the service, which was wonderful to hear. We had a solid mix of returners and new faces, with the smash burger once again being the standout favorite of the evening. In total, we did 32 covers, which was a bit lower than yesterday, but we’re optimistic about seeing a bigger crowd tomorrow night. The shift ran smoothly from start to finish with no issues.
pretty quiet and slow lunch for a Thursday . Bruce parham and guest dined in the bar . Mr McDaniel and a guest had his usual 3cheese grill cheese and tomato basil at the bar . Full staff ,
Solid evening for a Wednesday, strong patio service as expected and several walk ins both for the bar and patio. Taylor and Jordan did well with walk up bar traffic and server tickets, Niya was great on the phones and Shawn took great care of the Grey Murray 60th birthday 9 top Brittany did great with the new hostess & Maria’s DRA’s were strong. Especially Mia!
Tonight we had 51 covers, which was a noticeable jump from last week and brought a lively energy to the evening. Promoting on social media clearly paid off, as we saw more traffic and even had some guests return from last week to try new menu items. The smash burger continued to be a standout favorite and received plenty of compliments. We were originally expecting a 15-top for a surprise birthday party, but only 5 guests arrived. Despite the smaller group, they had a wonderful time and gave us rave reviews. Overall, the night ran smoothly with no issues, and it was a great day for Bon Air Kitchen.
Pretty steady day . We had a tennis group on the patio, we had Mrs Engler and 5other lady members celebrating Lauren lands birthday . Mrs Barrett hosted some ladies at table 5 . The petersons were in solo today . The owl and special sold well with good feed back. All in all quiet shift no major issues
We finished the night with 100 covers, making for a slow but consistent pace throughout service. The bar and patio stayed busy and provided most of the activity, while the dining room remained empty except for our preassigned reservation at 7:30. Because of the lack of traffic inside, I went ahead and cut both Tori and Sanya early. Service ran smoothly with no issues, guests seemed to enjoy the atmosphere on the patio, and closing was efficient and well-organized, wrapping up the night without any problems.
Strong pasta night - 14 in founders (Hatcher / Bundy) and 15 at the outdoor fireplace (engler) kept us on our toes. Shawn took great care of the founders and Tori crushed the outdoor fireplace. No lags in service and everyone did great to make it happen. Devan and Maria were all over it and led the charge through the thick of service.
My first Sunday Funday from start to finish! (Once a year when Cory and Sav are on vacay) Devan was such a huge help today from start to finish . It’s currently 850pm and I’m still here 😒 . but anywho . We had a lot of people all day . To many to name . But we had a full staff for all shifts 💪🏾 (6 servers and 4DRAs both shifts ) and I’m very proud to admit there was ONLY ONE mishap that was handled very quickly. Niya took Mrs Brittingham order for a Reuben for a to go dinner and I had to call back for a substitution . She ordered a tenderloin and Andy got it to me quickly .Handled! Engler fireplace dinner went from 17 to 12 to 15 . Shout out to Joe and Tori Cam Brown “round two” in founders went well . They finally sat down after an hour and a half of cocktailing . Shawn served them Kiara had a 18 top on the patio and did great while maintaining all her other tables in the bar and patio . over all a great day, until next year 😘 TH covers breakfast:60 lunch: 182 dinner: 197
Tonight at Bon Air Kitchen we served 33 covers, and the evening started off busy before slowing down around 7:00 PM. The servers and staff did an excellent job maintaining efficient ticket times and engaging warmly with guests, which contributed to a smooth and enjoyable service. The most popular items of the night were the birria tacos and the fresca paloma, both of which were well received by guests. We had many happy families dining with us, and several took advantage of the game counter, adding to the lively and welcoming atmosphere. Overall, it was a great Friday night filled with positive energy and excellent teamwork from the staff.
Steady Friday buffet breakfast. Cagles were here per usual; she was a little stunned she was charged $2.50 for an English muffin . Mr weir sassnet and Turlock had breakfast on the patio . Lopez and Mears as well
Tonight was a bit busier than our opening day, with 42 covers and a lively crowd. Guests gave us plenty of praise and compliments on the new menu, with the smash burger once again proving to be the most popular item. The new Fresca Paloma cocktail was especially well received by the adults, adding to the upbeat and welcoming vibe of the evening. Overall, it was a great night with a strong crowd and positive energy throughout the restaurant.
Today marked the official opening of Bon Air Kitchen, and while it was a slower start with 37 covers, it was a strong and positive beginning. Guests praised both the food and the inviting new atmosphere, creating a warm and lively vibe throughout the evening. The Adams party brought in an 11-top with their friends and shared that they plan to make Bon Air a weekly tradition, which was wonderful to hear. Standout highlights included the smash burger, which received excellent feedback, and the record player, which quickly became a guest favorite. The slower pace likely reflected the midweek timing, but we are hopeful for increased traffic as we head into Thursday and Friday.
The soft opening of Bon Air Kitchen was a smooth and productive night, allowing us to test the printers, POS system, and kitchen flow while addressing final details. We hosted the housing committee and several board members, with the Reese’s Birria Tacos standing out as a crowd favorite. The only critique was regarding the front decorations, but overall, the evening was a great opportunity to preview operations and build excitement for what’s ahead.
Pretty steady super Tuesday in TH for lunch . Mr McDaniel had lunch with his usual two guests . The A team tennis celebration went well, 11 soup and salad scoops in total .

Dinner service tonight was slow but steady, with a total of 152 covers, making for a manageable pace throughout the evening. While overall traffic was consistent, only seven guests chose to order the fried oyster special, which saw limited interest, whereas the lamb lollipops stood out as the clear favorite and sold very well. A good portion of guests came in to watch the US Open, creating a lively energy in certain areas, particularly on the patio, which remained busy for most of the night. In contrast, the dining room stayed relatively quiet, allowing the team to stay on top of service without feeling rushed. Despite the slower flow in some areas, the night went smoothly with no issues, and the atmosphere overall felt relaxed yet productive. It was a solid evening of service with a balanced pace, happy guests, and strong teamwork across the board. -Devan

Tonight’s pasta night was smooth and successful despite being a bit slower due to the Labor Day holiday, starting off with a good small crowd early in service, with many guests requesting patio seating to enjoy the evening weather. Valentine created a fantastic mocktail option for a member who wanted a fun, fruity drink without alcohol, which was well-received and added a nice personal touch to the night. The shrimp protein option at the pasta bar was especially popular and received no complaints. Although we were scheduled to host an eight-top for the Pope’s anniversary celebration, the party did not show, but aside from that cancellation the evening ran smoothly and was enjoyable for both members and staff! -Devan
Tonight was just OVERFLOWING with fun activities… literally. We welcomed the Trotters and friends in for their dinner, they seemed to enjoy the night and especially the wine😆 the presidents room and founders both enjoyed their nights! In the restaurant we didn’t have too many tables at all tonight but everyone seemed happy!

Today was a consistent steady night. We started off with 31 on the books but doubled it with 68. We had some of our usuals members come in such as the Abbots and celebrated Mr.Neils 90th birthday with friends and family on the terrace. Dr. Bedder came in for the calf liver special and was not to be missed. Bar had a little rush at first, half stayed for dinner half went elsewhere. Overall a great night! -Devan
Pretty quiet steady day. A lot of down time, we refilled salt and pepper shakesrs and counted them . Cleaned out the hutches. We had bridge with their usual bloody Mary’s and lunch .
Slower than usual Pizza Night for our last of the year. We did 22 covers from the buffet and 6 whole pizzas. Lots of buzz picking up about the Bon Air, summerhouse regulars in particular are excited! SH: 747.08
No actual summerhouse service today due to subpar weather, but we had the Sweetings birthday party as planned! Everything went great, no notes. Kellyanne and Connie Jones were extremely grateful as always, and told us how awesome we always are! They had a great time despite the changes and dreary day
