    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.

    Food was mixed, meat cooked well but appetizers, sauces, desserts, and mash potato/pomme puree (I couldn’t tell which one they wanted it to be) left s lot of be desired. For student run restaurant, very impressive!
