This college-based restaurant (that is actually their classroom) showcases the talents of the students from various culinary programs. Operating the restaurant for the public is the capstone of their hospitality program. The offerings are somewhat limited, but delicious. Service is very good and the students are very personable. Value of the overall experience is excellent and compares quite favorably with retail restaurants.

while the food and service were quite good There was a lot of lag time during the meal. We were never in a hurry but over an hour from salad to entrée was excessive. And this is the second time there has been that big gap of time.For now we will chalk it up to inexperience and that it will be used as a learning tool and improve. Thanks

Wait staff was prompt but not intrusive. He was able to answer questions about the preparation of the food. Food outstanding. Only thing they need to work on is warming the plates before plating them for customers. Will go back again. Highly recommend.

The is a restaurant attached to the the Frederick Community College Hospitality, Culinary and Tourism Institute. It is part of the graduation for the students. The meal is a prix fixe. The food was excellent with fresh ingredients and prepared with care. The service was attentive. I would recommend the restaurant for its food, service and value. And, above all, it is a wonderful way to support the students and the program

A fun evening helping the FCC culinary students gain real-life experience in the restaurant industry. Menu selections were imaginative enough to offer variety but stream-lined enough to allow for practice in consistent preparation and presentation. Food portions were ample. Wait staff was friendly and attentive; ambience was welcoming with festive Christmas jazz playing in the background. I’m sure these students’ culinary/hospitality careers will only improve further as they gain more skill and confidence. We sure enjoyed the experience and hope to do it again someday!

The food is delicious and artfully presented. The soup changes each week and each time it was unusual and very good. The beef burgundy is some of the best I have ever had. It is plated on top of mashed potatoes with carrots on the side and two homemade potato chips as a decorative touch. The crème brûlée is a delightful finish to the meal.

Absolutely wonderful meal! Everything was seasoned perfectly, each course was surprised us with the attention to detail and the serving size. This meal and service can easily fit into any high end restaurant in the area. In fact, their Rainbow Trout was BETTER than another high end restaurant that we'd been to lately! We will definitly be adding this to our dining routine going forward.

This dinner exceeded the expectations of all four in the party. We ordered three of the four entree choices and shared among ourselves; all agreed that each was done to perfection. We tried and shared all four desserts, with the same conclusion. This restaurant surpasses any that I've visited in the town and many in famous foodie cities. We plan to return again during the Spring semester.

This is our 2nd time back to 200 Monroe and we are always so pleased with the food and service! The students do a fantastic job and are very professional. While all the dishes were good, the dessert was our favorite! They should consider making it a full time restaurant. We definitely recommend it and we will be back!
