He was attentive, asked if we had any questions, and even shared a bit about himself. After bringing our drinks, he mentioned that our appetizers would arrive soon. The bread plate was beautifully arranged, complete with a card detailing the bread and spread pairings. He timed the courses perfectly, so we never felt rushed. Everything we had was delicious. I was a bit worried about ordering the pork chop, thinking it might be dry, but it turned out to be the best I’ve had in ages—generously portioned, juicy, and full of flavor. My husband ordered the lamb chops and was very pleased with his meal as well. The dessert was a highlight—it was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend the chocolate raspberry bombe!

She checked on us throughout our meal, making sure we had everything we needed. When we asked about her future plans, she was open and shared her aspirations for after graduation. The food was delicious and served at just the right pace. Everyone enjoyed their meals and desserts. We can't wait to come back! We truly appreciate this program and the chance to meet some of the students.
