Nice job the students are doing, they become the next great bakers, just a lovely place to get some fantastic, affordable french pastries.

Go earlyish for a good selection, as everything is great and well priced and tends to sell out fast!

It was my first time here. Looking over the selections, it's definitely one of those places where the sooner you get there, the better buying options you have. At least I have one more chance next Thursday(last time this year) to buy what I missed this time.

Loved this place! The food was fantastic. The atmosphere quiet and quaint. As others mentioned, the staff is in training and will stumble through your order, but they are earnest in their quest to learn and desire to serve. We all start somewhere. Be patient with the little foibles and have a fabulous meal at a great price. Highly recommend!

The best “Bang for your Buck” in expensive & over-priced San Francisco. A true gem. Also, you never feel rushed, service with a genuine smile & all dishes, presentations & services provided by the culinary students themselves. A great program with great food!
Support higher education and the future chefs of America! Had a wonderful meal neatly executed by the culinary students of City College in this student operated restaurant. This visit we had the arugula and strawberry salad, merguez meatballs over creamy polenta, a side of portabello mushroom and the splendid Chilean Napoleon with a secret tres leeches filling. Service was warm and attentive. Dishes arrived quickly. Dining room is bright and clean. Classical music in the background.

A pleasant "fine dining" experience that is very affordable in the downtown area that is actually run by students enrolled in the SF City College 2 semester culinary program! Although open only during the lunch hour, we were greeted warmly with a smile when we walk in. After being escorted to our table, they make sure we were comfortably seated before bringing us the menu and telling us about the day's specials. A couple times during the meal, they approach our table to make sure everything was satisfactory. I found the student staff (including the instructor) was very attentive, ready to answer questions about the food or to talk about their experience in the program (when asked). The food was tasty and elegantly presented on each plate. The deserts were bite-size and delicious. I enjoyed going to the Educated Palate. It's all for a great cause. The students get valuable experience. The cost of the meal goes back to the program to pay for food and equipment, etc.

The best “bang for your buck” in expensive San Francisco. The dessert tray is truly a piece of art. I could have eaten two of the citrus salads (it was that good). The service was highly attentive. If you haven't eTen here for lunch, you don't know what you're missing.
