    Food was outstanding; great presentation and outstanding flavors. Service was a little slow when it came to the check, but otherwise very good. Can’t wait to return.

    It is always a great experience dining at the CIA but Bocuse is our favorite. The food is innovative , comforting and delicious. Lots of oohing and aahing over presentation and taste. The servers are professional and charming and happily share their culinary journeys. Highly recommended!

    Great food! As a CIA alumnus, I was very proud. Service was a bit awkward and stilted, but that is to be expected and they did a fantastic job. Well done!

    We had a great time at Bocuse! Following a bad experience at a different CIA restaurant last year, CIA sent me a gift card for a free dinner if I was willing to come back. From the minute we walked in, this was completely different from last year and fantastic. The service was great and the students couldn’t have been nicer. The food was all brought out in a timely manner and everything was delicious (I had the mushroom tart, lobster, and chocolate dessert; my husband had the salmon ceviche, steak, and crème brûlée). All was super fresh and the students did such a good job explaining each dish. Overall, we had a great time and will definitely be back.

    My wife and I ate here several years ago and happened to be coming through the area and decided to try it again. It was as good, or better, than the last time. Gordon was our server and did a wonderful job. The food was fantastic and we had a wonderful experience.
