Walked into a new steakhouse in Dallas and their grill station was a total mess

I was at this place called The Oak Grill last night, and from the dining room you could see right into the kitchen. Their main grill cook had his station so cluttered with dirty pans and tongs, it looked like a bomb went off. He was reaching over piles of stuff just to flip a steak, and you could see the stress on his face. How do you guys keep your line clean during a busy rush without slowing down service?

Yikes, that's a total red flag for the whole kitchen.

Red flag for the whole kitchen," @piperf40? That's the whole house.

Seriously, if the kitchen's a mess, the rest of the place is probably hiding worse stuff. You can't trust anything to be clean or safe. It just shows a total lack of care.
