Douglas DupreyJanuary 2, 2014Awesome Brunch! Great lunches. Some of the best food around. This may be the "training" kitchen for students, but you have some of the best chefs in the world watching over them. We enjoy it here!- Phillip WhiteJuly 28, 2013Such a treat to have a Sunday Brunch with such consistent excellence in addition to ever-changing variety. Not to be missed.
Shirley McNairMarch 14, 2014I'm from MS, travel nurse and ate here after I picked up nursing license. Best egg salad I've ever had. And all made in culinery kitchen. The deserts were breathe taking.
Tuesday MFebruary 27, 2013The Mediterranean tapas menu is delicious, but if you're looking for more western cuisine, be sure to get the prix fixe—it's a great deal!
Robert BradfordMarch 14, 2013The bar downstairs is lively and has an excellent selection of Scotch. The tapas are amazing, too, so try some!
Nic LedouxJanuary 21, 2010Try the lounge with their tapas menu. Take the stairs down towards the bar when you walk in. They have many small appetizer-size dishes to choose from. This is where NECI cooks really shine.
Weekly Lounge specials and a very nice 3 course Farm-to-Table Prix Fixe Menu for $27
Rajan FrantzFebruary 28, 2010Excellent food and drinks, menu was very seasonally-appropiate. Baked chicken exquisite and tender.
Jennifer ErtelMay 2, 2015Slowest service I've ever experienced; I got my drink approximately 30 minutes after being seated. Food is hit or miss - it totally depends on the student cooking your meal.
