I have read your guys reviews or comments and can understand your frustration. However, I also work for the same owner and have never seen any illegal practices with him. Have any of you ever brought these concerns to his attention directly, because from my experience, when I ask Brendan about a discrepancy, he is very cooperative about settling the issue immediately. I just think you should go to the source first before trashing a productive company. BTW, there is so many false accusations in the original post, not one of them is factually correct. JMHO and experience I guess. Also, why don't you cowards put your real name on these posts, are you that pathetic or not really sure youre telling the truth?

While it sounds shady at your company, some of the things may be legal, just by using loopholes. They can claim your uniform charge is a "deposit" for the uniform and then its legal to charge it by your state. As for breaks, there is the one little thing in colorado that states: "when the nature of the buisness activity or other cicumstances exist that makes an uninterrupted meal possible, the employe may be permited to consume an on-duty meal while performing duties" which means they can just let you eat and keep working. It does look like they still have to give you at least a 10 min break.
The record keping should be easy for you to prove, just start keeping track of your hours. Write them down every day and compare to your check. If it doesn't add up file a complainte with the state board of labor. Your friend making 7.25$ an hour needs to complain also, as there was an increase in 9 cents of the minimum wage.
Finally, they are not required to pay you milage. Unless your state has some specific law about this, there is no law I know of that requires milage to be paid. They can argue that is what your tips cover.

To be clear, the headline should state, 'Possible Wage and Labor Violations'. The matter has not been decided by a court-yet.
The information included in this report is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge.
