Portion sizes will not disappoint! Prices are good also. 22 dollars got me & my wife a meal, but it turns out we could share one meal given the portion sizes. Highly recommend

I actually worked in the Bistro from 2016-2018 when I attended EVIT and it was honestly one of the best times of my life. I actually really miss it. I also went here to have lunch once or twice after I graduated, and the food is still delicious! Also shoutout to Chef Gaston and Chef Kalfus. Great teachers!

Fries were so inconsistent. Some were cooked OK the rest were dried to various degrees. Meat in burgers were past well done, and they never asked how we'd like them cooked. The flavor probably would have been OK otherwise. Whoever was there did not seem to care at all. Also, I forgot the cheese on 1 burger. The wait was so long.

These EVIT Culinary Arts kids are AMAZING. My son goes to EVIT in a different program and he loves getting food from their kiosk or bistro. The food is outstanding and very affordable.
If you want to support local students working hard to obtain their goals, this is the place to go. The food was amazi g, the service was great, and I was impressed at how well this restaurant was ran by high school students! Please go check it out. I promise they won't dissapoint! Next time I'm in this part of the valley, I'm going for sure! I had a burger and it was delicious! Can't wait to go back and try more!
Very friendly staff.Reasonable priced, good food.Would re-visit.
WOW!!! I wish I took pictures so you can see how much good food you get for $6. The $6 entree was a cheeseburger and fries. If you don't know a little background they are a tech school with a culinary program and locally sourced foods. The burger was good meat, a quarter pound, fresh ingredients, fresh french fries made from real potatoes and crispy the way you wish Inn and Out fries were actually cooked and actually tasted. The fries were in a huge bag that could easily suffice 2-3 people to share.The panko chicken tenders are awesome as well and fresh chicken is used it's not a frozen product - nothing there tastes as if it was frozen. The side for that entree was upgraded to a Santa Fe Chipotle side salad for a dollar more making that entree around $7 for 4 fresh panko breaded chicken strips accompanied by a side salad which is a meal in itself. People pay $14 for a salad with less ingredients and smaller portions at other restaurants and what we got was a loaded side salad with fresh ingredients, homemade tortilla strips and Homemade dressing (pesto ranch is awesome and is chipotle ranch but that has some bite). No joke these 2 meals could easily feed 3 people and no one would be left hungry at a price point of $14 that includes tax. ****Again, 3 people fed fully, fresh food, good food, $14!!! Plus students are learning!!!****There is a burger king next door. You can't get a value meal cheaper than a fresh bistro meal. If you are going out for a sandwich, burger, chicken tenders, soup, or gourmet salad, fries, Mac and cheese, cheesecake, or cookies why go anywhere else than here. These kids are developing their skills for a future career, the food is fresh, and the prices are unbeatable. I live and work close to here and I will never again go to Applebee's, chili's, fast food joint, whatever if this place is open. You must know they are limited hours since the staff consist of students. They have a window of 2 hours for breakfast and a window of 2 hours for lunch Monday -Thursday. I dont know about dinner hours however. You can dine in, order online, or call it in, and they have a window to drive up to and pick up. They have instructors right there observing. To the review about timelines, I had no issues but again these are students, and your food is legitimate food and fresh - it's good coaching feedback for them but not worthy of a complaint. I suggest calling in the order like I did because I talked to a real person who gave me an accurate timeframe. Online ordering is not going to be that accurate. This place is a hidden gem in my opinion so I say try it out!
The food here was good. I went here during an event so the menu was limited but the food still tasted great. The hours are more of lunch hours because the employees are actually students at EVIT, but if you have the time I would recommend this place.

The first time I ordered from Bistro 13, I placed an online order for2 items with a specified pickup time, about a half hour. I arrived about the specified time and still had to wait an additional 25 minutes for the food. There were four employees/students doing nothing. When they gave me the food, they didn’t acknowledge that it was late or apologize.I decided to give them a second chance and placed an online order 45 minutes in advance of when I wanted it. I arrived to find Bistro 13 closed, after I had paid online. There was no notification on their website of closure, it was during their normal business days and hours.This is not a serious restaurant with professional employees. I won’t waste my time again, you shouldn’t, either.
Excellent food and service. The high school kids make an amazing breakfast. Very clean and well run. Great job.
Great program and even greater food. Students learn by doing and they did a great job! Menu and prices are crazy inexpensive so worth the trip.
This is an awesome place and program. It's operated by EVIT students as part of a program. You'll be hard pressed to find food of this quality for the price.
