Everything was great, and the students were working really hard. My salad, pizza and tikka curry were all great. Everything was quick and fresh and it was surprisingly busy for a Wednesday afternoon!

I really enjoy seeing my city coming alive with people out and about, today I was downtown and looked around and then I remembered how I had been waiting for the longest to come and check this place out and I was surprised because you couldn't tell by looking at it from the outside but the place was very busy, all tables were full and I saw steady flow of waiters and attendants, all going about serving patrons.My experience was supreme as I was catered to and treated like royalty...like Arnold says "I'll be back"!!..Thank you guys!?

I can see future chefs coming from this school. The staff was very pleasant and the food was delish. I had the broccoli beef & I think the beef could have been sliced just a little thinner, but it was very tasty.

Great food at a great price.

So very disappointing.. I have eaten breakfast and lunch on other occasions and enjoyed the food and the experience. Today was not good.. after waiting an hour our waiter came over and told me they were out of what I had ordered.. when I finally received a different order it was tepid and bland. We were told it was a problem due to transitioning from experienced students to new students.. They obviously had not anticipated this nor planned for it.

At bfast. Took over an hour before we were informed they were out of 1 of our orders. When food arrived it was tepid cold. Total chaos! The inmates were running the asylum. The instructor in charge was clearly not training or giving guidance the students on how to serve. If it were a real restaurant he/she would be fired….as I think he/she should.

I'm almost hesitant to post this as this is almost a best kept secret in Riverside . Went here for breakfast for the first time with friends who are regulars. Food was excellent-I had a build your own omelette which came with Potatoes and toast. Wonderful omelette and potatoes. My experience was students were uniformly providing excellent service and on top of that were very sweet. Seating was quite nice and had a nice clean atmosphere-and I'm sure part of the ambience was due to really sweet students starting out their lives and careers. They were all professional- nothing flubbed or awkward. I think all meals were under $7.00. Parking is available at the downtown library which is almost across the street. I believe a portion of the parking is free. I'm Going again today for lunch so I'll find out.

Food is typically pretty good. But they really need to step up the attitude of the students. I've been here a few times and had several who just seem annoyed that I'm even there. Or just really don't care. Most are ok but too many have this attitude. Sad. Annnnnd she asked me specifically if I wanted cheese on my burger and I said no and of course it comes out with cheese. Ugh.

First of all the parking around there sucks if you can even find a place around there to park. But once you get in there, the staff is friendly and the service is great and the food is totally outstanding and delicious. They need longer hours or better yet somebody needs to open a restaurant with all their foods specially, in the northside area.

I had been wanting to come here for a while but my schedule didn't allow. The students were all very welcoming and attentive. Customer service was great! I did go towards their closing time, so they were busy. Food qwas great and fresh. Will definitely be going back again.

Got here right when they opened (because they're open less than 2 hours for lunch) and service was great! A good meal for 2 plus soup or salad, drinks and tip for about $20 - you can't get that anywhere else! We were so full, we had no room left for dessert, but they sounded delicious. If we lived closer, we'd come here all the time to try everything they serve!

I was really looking forward to breakfast here today. Guess with it being June I should have assumed better. NO where on their Yelp Page or Web Page does it mention they are closed for the summer. As a matter a face, as I write this, Yelp says they CLOSE in 45 minutes. Oh well.

Excellent prices ! Talented chef's. You're served gormet meals at cost. Can't get any better than this.

I love this place! The food is delicious and so reasonable you can't go wrong. It's the students that are slow but they are learning so I cut them some slack. What they lack in service, they make up in food and prices. I'm a big fan. I love their rotating menu.
