"they don't know what they're doing. the place is a mess." but i would argue strongly that some of the small tweaks that doug's made, like the menu, actually made the experience better. lemonis: how is this business treating you guys? cristine: good. doug: it's good. lemonis: what does it do in sales? doug: last year was $270,000. lemonis: but it's new. cristine: it's new.
