Plates are served at the right temperature on hot dishes when needed, and portions are generous for a student run restaurant. The leek salad is perfect and the onion soup is too salty despite croutons and cheese, while the fresh Portuguese style cod is excellent and the mussels can seem tired. The beef fillet can be tough, and the giant split baba with mangoes and the lemon meringue tart are highlights. Coffee and herbal tea are included, and the wine list is concise but interesting. Service is attentive with enthusiastic student staff, the dining room is clean though lively with a high ceiling, reservations are advised as it tends to fill up, and the overall experience showcases strong training and dedication from both students and staff, leaving many likely to return.View restaurant profile
