Degustation lunch was good. Many seafood dishes, some dishes did not match the menu but were similar. The guests thought it was a Japanese, French theme. We gave a positive feedback to the students.

Pork loin was dry and overcooked. But the small appetizers in between meals made up for the dryness.

We couldn't fault any aspect of our experience. The service was terrific. Our wait staff was very pleasant, interacted with us, explained how the night worked and each menu item. He was very attentive without being over the top. The food was plentiful and delicious and were even offered a container to take ours surplus home. A very enjoyable evening.

Very interesting buffet food presentation. Enjoyed the atmosphere - very pristine. Would have liked to have seen descriptions of the food. Staff could not always be available to describe the dishes as they were also serving/carving the food. The desserts and coffee - amazing! Pity there was no alcohol to accompany our meal. All in all - very well done. Look forward to the next one. Thank you

The food quality was disappointing, and the ambience was lacking. The overall standard has clearly declined compared to previous years. We won’t be returning.

We have been a number of times to the Ambassador Training Restaurant and again it didn't disappoint. We all felt that out waiter Ben had served us a few months prior and we were impressed with his increased confidence and demeanour. The food was excellent as seems usual. We will look forward to repeating our experiences at a future date. Thanks to the teachers and staff who have contributed to this excellent experience.
