a good break down for one of those is
1 gm
1 Kitchen manager
1 Bar manager
1 server/ hostess manager
plan on having enough servers to give everyone 4-5 table station to work.
2-3 hostess depending on volume
1 window cook
1 fry cook
1 grill cook
1-2 expos
1-2 food runners
1-2 bartenders
2 buss persons
1 dishwasher
for each shift.
If your restraunt has a take out bussiness you might need a person just to run that

I work in a local restaurant that seats about 120 people, and we have a manager, 2 cooks, 1 dishwasher, 4 waitresses.
Depending on the restaurant, you could have a variety of "chefs", a bartender, hostess, busboy, maintainence man.
It all depends on the type of restaurant. Good luck!

I worked in one for years more to mention this was the break down. Now granted some of these are needed for both shifts and add about 2 to every position for weekends and special holidays.
1 General Manager (usually opened)
2 assistant managers (swing shift close shift)
1 Kitchen Manager – usually only worked days or 11-8
you need 3 cooks on the line and at least 2 prep cooks at night and 3 in the day(both Shifts)
about 2 to 3 bus boys(both Shifts)
1 to 2 hostess during peak hours (both shifts)
1 bartender (both Shifts)
1 bar back – unless you use bus boys for it
7 waiters or waitresses (1 being head waiter/waitress) both shifts.
1 food runner during Fridays and Saturdays or special holidays Usual a wait staff member
Hope that helped
