Food should be amazing, service sad
Went last night. I expected food on par with other culinary school restaurants which are generally off the charts. The food was really average. I wouldn't take a cooking course at this school. Service was poor as well.

Excellent food,good value, service needs a little work
Visited L'Ecole few days ago...food was excellent , I highly recommend the wine pairing option...Had Charcuterie Plate as appetizer it was incredibly delicious and paired perfectly with Riesling. My girlfriend had the Pork belly, also delicious but onion ring pieces on it were way too salty ( and I love salt)...our Entree was stupendous! we had the duck and lamb both were small portions but incredibly rich so obviously portions will not be huge. We had the chocolate cake w/Ice cream and Cheesecake extremely decadent and delightful..we got a Creme' Brulee on the house since we were celebrating a b'day so that's always great....I will say I was not super impressed with service ( despite the fact that we did get a free desert) ...I felt our waiter could have been more attentive ... they were very courteous when interacting with us but did end up having multiple waiters which was a bit confusing... they were super busy so that may explain the not so wonderful service...overall an excellent experience

delicious, flavorful food, great service
Took my friend out for her birthday. It was our first time in L'Ecole and we just loved it. We ordered four-course prefix dinner and for the quality of food and such personal service it's definitely the best deal in town. We were really impressed - the place is warm, unpretentious. Will be back for sure.

Wonderful lunch
The $28 prix fixe lunch is one of the best deals in town. The menu is very intersting and varied- the service is charming and warm and the food was absolutely terrific! Not enormous portions-but more than adequate. Lovely garnishes and veggies- super desserts and a wine list that offers options . The comments around the room were basically shock and awe at how great everything tasted. Don't miss it!

It was my bday Fri, and me and my friends had brunch (expecting lunch tho), it was fabolous!! The flavors were intact and distinct, place was immaculately clean, staff were friendly, and these make my dining experience really great, will come back and try lunch this time.

Simply Sublime!
My husband and I chose L'Ecole to celebrate our second wedding anniversary and from the moment we arrived, we realized we were in for a memorable night. First of all, let me say that the food was just divine- dish after dish was better than the last ( we had the five course dinner with wine paring). The service was fantastic, our wine and water glasses never went below half all night. We received complimentary dessert along with what we ordered and left with a delightful treat. It was definitely worth the cost of the meal and worth the wonderful time we had that night. We will definitely return and recommend to our friends and family.
