I just found out a few days ago that they were hiring for all positions and were going to be reopening soon under new management. After seeing Rob's true colors and such I really do hope someone new bought it. And to the people who said that the code violations were not major. THEY ARE!!!! You cannot run a restaurant like you would your home, and the walk in cooler is not your refrigerator! You have to follow the regulations! Not following them, could result in people getting sick. Now wouldn't you feel pretty crappy if a woman who was pregnant ate at your restaurant and was served contaminated food, and she ended up getting very sick and losing her baby! It's not that hard to follow the rules. I worked at a very respected restaurant where the rules were VERY STRICT to say the least, but we had a packed house every lunch and dinner and every game. We never failed an inspection and they were always watching us! Bottom line is, if you want to run a successful restaurant, you can't do whatever you want to, you have to follow the rules. And if you can't follow those simple simple and did say SIMPLE rules, you shouldn't!!!! Please don't take this post as bashing, it's not. It's just my honest opinion! And if that causes you to become defensive then maybe you should worry about the "log in your eye" and not "the splinter in everyone else's" <br /><br />Signed,<br />ASAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999078.post-45266071544407077512009-09-07T11:03:13.725-04:002009-09-07T11:03:13.725-04:00I read and heard that he stole all the televisions...I read and heard that he stole all the televisions and cut the cables, stole all the unpened liquor, the silver waare, food papaer products ect, I wonder if he will have charges pressed agianst him, I have heard from so many people, how he has stolen from his partner and his customers and he denies it time and time agian, Quess he just proved that he is a liar and a theif.

PUKE!<br /><br />Rob's Response: So funny how none of you ever come here but you just ate here last night. We have not comped a meal in months. Bashing again.<br /><br />Anonymous said... <br />What a joke, meet me at the rodeo and take the chance you may not get food sick. Come on, I have listened to the president carry on and on about what a great rest owner he is when he feel's like talking to you. I have been barred and then have been begged to come back.<br /><br />Rob's Response: No guest has ever been sick from eating my food. I am a great restaurant owner. This is my second successful restaurant. I have completed over 17 million in sales as an owner. <br />I would love to know who this liar is. I have not "barred" anyone in a long time. I would only kick someone out for violence or drugs. Which offense did you commit? <br /><br />Anonymous said... <br />I understand that the kitchen gets backed up and the staff gets busy but this was just BAD and they are never busy anymore! I have had raw food served to my group the last 10 times, I got sick of the special, literally. <br /><br />Rob's Response: You say we were backed up and busy but then you say we are never busy. Raw food 10 times in a row? We cook our food. Easy to see the bashing here.<br /><br />Anonymous said... <br />Just for the record, I was told by a reliable source, The Rodeo will be shutting it's doors in the near future.<br /><br />Rob's Response: Let us judge how reliable your source is, state the name. No we are not shutting our doors. We are open for business and looking forward to the future!<br /><br />Anonymous said... <br />Oh by the way, why don’t you keep your personal issues with your business partner out of the public eye? It is so obvious who really has the problem. <br /><br />Rob's Response: You have the problem. You are bringing my personal business to the public eye I do not appreciate it and I am sure Matt dose not either. I am defending myself. Any concerned business owner would stand up for themselves. <br /><br />Anonymous said... <br />Travis here, <br />You have got to be friggin kidding me, I really feel sorry for the employees. <br />What is that famous saying? If you give them enough rope they will hang themselves.<br /><br />Rob's Response: Travis who? Have we met? Ask any employee here, we have an excellent working relationship. We are a family, we are a team and we stick together.<br /><br />To the general public I say this: I come to work every day and do my best. I have met so many good and life long friends here in LaBelle since I opened my business over 2 years ago. I truly love this city and I am proud to own a business here and I would have never made these friends I have now if I never opened a business in LaBelle. I would live here if I could but my wife and children and settled in to their lives now and they do not want to move. LaBelle reminds me of the small town I grew up in. I have created 30 jobs. My business generates a large tax base for the community. I serve the community in a simple but needed way. I just fed 100 kids and coaches from LaBelle High School Cowboys Football Program Summer Camp for free. I give to every charity in the community that asks for support. I sponsor football players, cheer leaders, churches and other businesses. I know I have thousands of guests who love my restaurant. There is only about 5 or 6 of you bashers here who don’t like my restaurant so I feel good about that. If there is anyone with concerns about the Rodeo Bar & Grill please feel free to call me directly (863)675-7006 or stop in and I would welcome the opportunity to meet and talk with you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
