Genres & Description

Action Comedy

6.8 / 10

It's the dinner shift at Shenanigan's. Dan, the clueless boss, assigns Mitch, 22, a trainee, to Monty, the smooth talker who chases girls for one-night stands. Dean, a waiter, also 22, feels that life is passing him by. Dan offers him the assistant manager job and gives him until midnight to decide. Other waiters, cooks, and bus boys have their issues and personalities. Bishop, the dishwasher, is their counselor. During this shift, Monty may learn something, Dean makes his decision, Dan makes a play for the not-yet-18 hostess, customers get their comeuppance, the guys all play the in-house homophobic flashing game, the gals demonstrate why they won't, and Mitch gets the last word.

I definitely feel like the name of the restaurant is a reference to Super Troopers. "Hey Farva! What's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the wall and the mozzarella sticks?" "You mean Shenanigans?" The restaurant in Waiting definitely fits the description that Mac gives in Super Troopers. - @Tuesday, May 9, 2017 9:12 AM

Man!!! Fuck these kinds of movies!!! Where's the movie about the kitchen staff??? The chefs, the cooks, the meat grinders, the sandwich makers, the people that actually handle the food with their own hands?!?! The craziness that happens behind the scenes outside the dinning room away from the customers?!?!?! The cooks are the ones that make the real money, they have the most fun/horror stories!!!!! The servers are just the cheap salesmen!!! Where's that movie?!?!?!?!!!!!!!! TELL OUR STORY!!!!! heehee, and be disgusted!!!! - @Wednesday, January 7, 2015 5:45 AM

i'm looking for a movie very like this. it is older and about exactly the same. one line i remember is; "whatever you do, don't give the chef any vodka!" i think the chef's name was "highball" he ended up tying the hostess to a chair on the stove and was going to make "flambe' A LA BITCH" any ideas? funniest movie i ever saw. - @Saturday, September 6, 2014 11:45 PM

to all of the people saying that the employers are obligated to pay the difference if the wait staff isn't getting enough tips, I have never had the difference made up to me, in fact, at the restaurant I worked at, the waiters had to account for the tips they had made, and then had ten percent taken away and given to the busboys, who actually did make minimum wage. - @Saturday, August 24, 2013 6:40 AM

Flip86

If they didn't they are breaking the law. Your wages, BY LAW, have to meet or exceed federal minimum wage or whatever the wage is for your state. If, after tips, you are making less than minimum wage, your employer is OBLIGATED BY LAW to make up the difference. - @Wednesday, August 7, 2013 5:24 PM

MademoiselleZombi

Hahahahaha. Funny joke. Have you ever worked in a restaurant? I've worked in 3 and not a single one compensated the servers for low tips. If you were in your first few weeks you were only allowed 1-3 tables at a time and with about $1.25 an hour after tax, one or two tables not tipping could mean you getting $4 an hour for 8 hours of work. - @Wednesday, August 7, 2013 2:35 PM

All america servers/retail staff that are good at your job I have a tip for you. Pack up your shit and move to Australia. $16.40 is are current minimum and most places my friends work at pay between $18-23 ph. We have free health care, the last mass shooting we had was in 1996 and all the major cities are by the beach. There is a reason we are rated the world's happiest county and love Americans - @Wednesday, August 7, 2013 10:03 AM
