Here in the School of Culinary Arts, we strive to provide a unique dining experience while fostering learning opportunities for our students. We kindly ask that you take note of the following:

Educational Setting: Please be aware that our Culinary Pop-up events and restaurant operates within an educational institution. As such, our service may occasionally reflect the learning process of our students. We appreciate your patience and understanding should there be any variations in service standards.

Menu and Offerings: Our menu items are carefully crafted by our students under the guidance of our chef professors. While we aim for culinary excellence, variations in taste, presentation, or availability of certain ingredients may occur.

Allergies and Dietary Restrictions: Our menus are based on the student’s curriculum and learning outcomes. We cannot accommodate substitutions, modifications, or alternations (unless otherwise advertised/offered).

Service Duration: As part of the learning process, our service may take longer than traditional restaurants. We appreciate your understanding as our students hone their skills in providing exceptional service.

Feedback: Your feedback is invaluable to us. We encourage you to share your dining experience with us. Your insights help our students improve and refine their skills.
