Every detail about our lunch at Degrees was perfect. Our server was very tuned in to my guest who had food allergies and helped her order the perfect meal. My salad was one of the freshest I have ever had ! We never felt rushed but was continually checked on. We will be back.

Our 1st visit. It was restaurant week. Took awhile to be waited on after we were seated - they were quite busy and most likely not expecting the demand. Our waiter (in-training)was excellent). Our 3-course meals were wonderful with very fresh ingredients ..the lobster pasta dish was amazing. Nice atmosphere. We will be back.

Restaurant week and it was a great menu and meal...our server Mr Booker was great too! We will be back! Love supporting the students and future chefs and hospitality industry staff

Very well planned meal for restaurant week. Food was well prepared and very delicious. Lobster pasta was outstanding. 3rd time here and will continue to visit, especially to support the culinary students. Good job.

The restaurant has a very nice, clean and efficient look. Service is very good and the students from Columbus State Community College definitely take this learning experience seriously. I shouldn't be surprised but the food was excellent. We were there during Restaurant Week and the Lobster Pasta was as good as any pasta dish we have eating here in the United States or in our visits to the home of pasta, Italy. Highly recommend checking Degrees out. Check days because I believe they are only open Monday - Thursday.

Since this was a Tuesday and restaurant week we decided to try to see if it's worth visiting again. They did not disappoint. The atmosphere is sober and inviting. There are tables and booths. It's a very clean place and you able to see in the kitchen to watch them cook. Over all neat places to be. I would recommend this place for dinner.

Very good food! Doesn't seem like a typical college student-run restaurant. We went for Restaurant Week and I had the warm burrata, lobster linguine, and creme brûlée. Also enjoyed the fennel fever cocktail. The burrata was melted when it arrived, though I wouldn't say it was warm - more room temp. It was delicious though. Could have used a bit more honey as it was not noticeable at all. Delicious though. The lobster linguine had sizable chunks of lobster and there was plenty of it, along with veggies in a lovely cream sauce. And the creme brûlée with berries was delicious - a very small portion. The cocktail was very unusual with the fennel liquor being quite noticeable. It was tasty if you like fennel. I think the flavors balanced more as the drink warmed up. The service was polite and knowledgeable. Parking was a bit confusing. We didn't want to get a ticket for parking in a lot without a proper permit for the campus. But we lucked out and found a spot right on the street. It would be helpful if they posted signs showing where to park. I enjoyed supporting this local restaurant which trains the next generation of restaurant professionals. I deducted a star bc I thought it was a little pricey and while the service was very good, it was a little bit slow. I took it in stride, knowing that we were being served by students.

We went during restaurant week, and it wasn't overly busy, but it took us 2 and a half hours for our 3 course meal. The food was okay, we just had little to no interaction for a very long time by our waiter who was not familiar with the offerings on the menu. It is a wonderful concept, I just would have expected something more for the price of the meal.

A great place to eat. The restaurant is nicely decorated. The service is equal if not better than most restaurants in Columbus. The menu and food is great. I had a riff on beef stroganoff using a grilled strip steak on top of noodles in a creamy mushroom sauce. The chicken parmesan was moist and not dried out like you find at other restaurants. Kudos to the chef and staff.

We had a wondeful dinner--everything was delicious. Our waitress was friendly and shared aspects about each entree. The space is open and contemporary . I love this restaurant and always bring friends and out-of-town guests. Thank you

Degrees was just perfect for us to dine out for our 50th. Wedding Anniversary. The staff were friendly and professional. Our table viewing the kitchen and watching the chefs practice their craft was exciting. Our food was as good as any upscale restaurant in town. Having the manager and main chef come by our table to greet us was an extra bonus. We will return.

Best kept secret! The food and service provided by this college program is equal to many popular restaurants in town for far less $$$ Few diners during dinner time. Limited hours. A must try.

The vibe of the place is very fancy and comfortable! Service couldn't have been better! A server or bartender was checking up on us often! I ordered the Chicken Parm and it was delicious! The sauce had all the right seasoning. The chicken had a crunchy exterior with a tender interior! It's hard to find a place that can make a great chicken parm that's not soggy. Absolutely will be coming back here! I'm so happy I snapped a picture of this wonderful dish.
