Just to do a quick recap.

1. Service is of the most paramount all around. Especially after reading reviews on here and Critiki about how even at places like Smugglers Cove poor service can put a bad light on the night.
2. I'm going to list service here again. Because that's how important it is.
3. Decor and music. You need to draw in the guests with a new and inviting atmosphere that is all encompassing and makes them want to return to discover something new.
4. Drinks, something that I thought would be the most important is really not. As you guys have said, they can be a great way to round out the theme completely, but having the absolute perfect drink may not make up for failings in numbers 1-3.

I should have my business plan finished by the end of this week to send to my SCORE advisors to see what they think. Personally, I think the numbers look good. But the upfront cost, is higher than I expected, even though I did over estimate on purpose.

Thank you ALL again for your help in this thread. It has been huge for me.
