The students never know how to open a wine bottle but otherwise they are very attentive. Chef Sean was nice to stop and introduce himself so nice.

Awesome! Hotel school student-run restaurant with a great menu, high quality service, and reasonable prices. Tipping isn't allowed since it's a for-credit course.
