Overpriced. Some dishes really hit it out of the park. Outdoor seating with a fabulous view, but the crowd is varied and we were disrupted by a large group with small children, which was unexpected.

The Thai scallops and the rye breaded white fish were both super yummy!

Whitefish was very dry. The accompanying vegetable and starch had no flavor. Overall very disappointing. Presentation was good. The service and ambiance were good.

Second visit to LCS- exceptional in so many ways! It was late August and we were sad to have missed the morning coffee and pastries! Keep it up!

This was the third time we ate at the Culinary School this summer. Everything was exceptional, though I had to give three stars for service because we sat for a long period of time after arrival before anyone came to the table. When the head server saw what had happened she took over and everything went smoothly thereafter. The food as always was excellent- I had the walleye ceviche (for the third time) to which I’m addicted. Three of us had flank steak and it was also amazing.

Our group of 10 very much enjoyed our annual visit to the Culinary School. Reservations were easy, service was friendly and the food was exquisite. My flank steak was cooked to perfection and the same could be said of the other dishes that were ordered. We look forward to our next visit.
