Reviews
We attended a semester finale 6-course dinner complete with wine pairings.
ATMOSPHERE:
The dining room and kitchen are located on the second level of the Pa’ina Building on the UHMC campus, which also houses the school’s diverse cafeteria on the lower level. The dining room is modeled like a traditional restaurant with host stand, configurable table seating, bar, and kitchen. High ceilings and big windows bestow airiness.
Courses included ,Salmon Tartar, Seared Diver Scallop & Kauai Prawns, Hickory Smoked Duck Breast, Herb & Mustard Crusted Lamb Rack, Morbier & Compressed Persimmon and dessert. Everything was phenomenal!
SERVICE:
The front-of-house students looked sharp in their black uniforms, and provided excellent and professional table service. Our waters and wines were always filled, and dishes explained when placed.
The kitchen students did a great job during the garde manger kitchen mingling and hors d’oeuvers, answering questions and kept up with our demanding appetites. Dinner food was amazingly prepared and expertly presented.
The sommelier was friendly, knowledgable and introduced each course’s pairing with a little bit of the wine area’s history.
OVERALL:
World-class food and service, and a great start for the chef’s and restaurant proprietors of tomorrow. Highly recommended!
