A truly unique and sumptuous dining experience. The service was impeccable. Jacob, our primary server, was wonderfully attentive, gracious and personable. The training at this Institute is obviously first rate. Our dinners were excellent. Every course is prepared and presented with care. All with creative blends of flavors. The portions are just right, not overwhelming. Highly recommended.

This was a very special dining experience. It was like being on the set of The Bear only without all the tension and anger. We enjoyed watching the well trained students effectively and effortlessly prepare and serve our three course dinner. Our primary server, Jonathan, was exceptional. Poised, informative, knowledgeable and entertaining. The food is a five star experience. Every dish full of unique and savory flavors. A post dining stroll in the beautiful campus overlooking the Hudson River was a perfect finish to this fine evening.
