The Class Act

Cedar Rapids — Valentine’s weekend, nice setting, good service, great presentation, tasty. Upscale restaurant, smaller setting(but have additional options for seating). I saw a couple tables that got sandwiches they looked great. It a nice option for date night

Having a great restaurant at a hotel is such a luxury! We enjoyed a delicious dinner and breakfast - both were fabulous. The staff was professional and attentive! The manager even taught my son how to make a rose out of his napkin. :) Highly recommend.

Discovered this establishment from a sign on the interstate. Stopped in for lunch. The establishment was very clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was great. We recommend stopping by when you are in the area. We will definitely return when we are in town.

Our server Kale was excellent. Very thorough and attentive. We each tried something different. I had the Cobb salad with Chicken. It had unique corn bread crouton, cranberries, diced sweet potatoes, yummy fresh crumbles bacon bits. The sweet potato were the only part of my meal I was not a fan of. We all tried the salmon Cajun soup. It was good the salmon melted in your mouth. The Class Act burger my son said was easily the best burger he has had. My son's girlfriend had the Iowa omelet and she said it was yummy. My husband had the corn beef hash he said it was a great from scratch hash.

This restaurant is located in The Hotel at Kirkwood Center, and is a Culinary Arts Program. Elegant decor. Great service and food at a slightly higher price point than a chain, but the students are learning (and we get to eat the rewards of their education). The sticky pork belly was perfectly balanced between sweet, sour, and savory. The special of the day (ribeye) was perfectly cooked, the pork chop, duck, and steak fries were excellent. Will come back when back in town!

Outstanding food! Absolutely Clean restaurant. Server lacked proper etiquette. Not once was asked how the food was more water. When making reservations I advised was my anniversary. Had to ask again about the desert. Had to make sure to tell me a get a free desert. Free didn't matter bringing the desert out without telling you twice did. Drinks tasted amazing. I understand it's a learning atmosphere so he didnt take away from the 5 stars. But does need extra training.

Went for Sunday Brunch the food was the worst we've ever had. The bagel and locks was horrible could not eat. Hash browns were extremely greasy, corn beef hash was cold, potatoes were under cooked. Server not very good waited a long time to be served. The server would forget to bring our drinks to us. Had to ask several times. The server brought out the toast but no butter and jam. Topped off they are charging prices you pay at a fancy restaurant. Definitely do not recommend

I had walleye, my friend had the beef fillet. It was outstanding. His salad was beautiful. My soup was perfectly seasoned. I cannot say enough about that meal. We really enjoyed it.

5/5 Everything exceeded my expectations. I was impressed with every single dish. They serve Roasterie coffee from Kansas City. And gave us a to-go cup when we left. I'm still dreaming about the grilled cheese and Oreo cheesecake. The eggs Benedict was standout. My husband ordered the steak and eggs and the chimichurri was delicious. For a Cedar Rapids, Iowa hotel restaurant - I'm blown away. I might make a return trip just for the Oreo cheesecake.

We enjoyed the Father's Day supper club menu at The Class Act. We chose potato croquettes to start and my partner opted for a classic wedge salad. I had my first brandy old fashioned- very nice. Generous entrees of ribeye steak and prime rib(excellent) with two sides. My ribeye was a bit over but not enough to fuss about. Chocolate malt cake and house made vanilla bean ice cream sundae were both excellent. An excellent meal for $49. Maya our server was very friendly.

We held our annual Christmas Eve gathering tradition here again this year, and they did not disappoint! I was excited to learn that they had a brunch menu this year, which was full of decadent entrees and appetizers, as well as spirited holiday drinks for the adults. Our waiter was absolutely wonderful and provided top notch service to our rather large group. Absolutely everything was on point! The food was marvelous tasting and plated with a very nice presentation. The prices here are VERY REASONABLE! I'd highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.

Marlene our server was great! It was quiet and not at all busy and she was friendly and helpful. The menu had multiple options and the wine choices were wonderful.

Didn't get to go back to this restaurant, but I did enjoy my first experience there for a Mother's Day brunch. My order was basic, omelette and French toast. And they also had a bread basket (which is my kryptonite). Prices were average. The space is very contemporary and inviting. The Restaurant sits within The Hotel at Kirkwood Center, which is in a very unassuming part of town. Except for its proximity to and connection with the Kirkwood Community College, there didn't seem to be much in close range/walking distance. If you find yourself in the Cedar Rapids area, Class Act is worth a try.

My wife and I love to go here for date night. Its very nice and quiet with great food! We always ask for the same booth in the back corner and with very few exceptions we always get it. The service is fantastic and it away from the busy downtown area, so very easy to get to. the food is outstanding and the drinks are pretty good as well. We will be back.

I had lunch here while my husband attended a meeting, and I was so glad I made that choice! Delicious food, impeccably plated, with an attentive server ready to refill my water and tea. I tried the cream of celery soup with a half salad and was so smitten I was sending photos to friends after the first tastes. I had not planned to order dessert but it seemed like a mistake not to... and am happy to report that the flourless chocolate cake was amazing. Totally recommend a visit - and if you are in town for one of their theme nights, I overheard a local explaining that they do sell out in advance and the food is always amazing.

Wowwww! I wanted to go here for a few years and this is more than 5 stars. It's a small menu, but mighty in portions and tastes. The service is the best I've ever had anywhere. The waiter had another student along and my water was always filled. The tastes are unique and there seem to always be specials. In all honesty one of my favorites was the house salad before the entree with Dijon dressing. Ok maybe I should just go back tomorrow

I fully support a learning environment, but I also encourage supervision and quality control. Our waitress was a wonderfully pleasant person - she made her suggestions which we gladly took. The lemonade? Heaven. The house salad with citrus vinaigrette? Ok.....a little bland, but ate it all. The steak with sweet potato fries? A definite no!!!! The sweet potato fries were soaking in grease, cold and soggy. The steak had an odd gray color that was somewhat masked by the large clumps of raw fat and sinew (I ordered my steak medium so was expecting the fat to be somewhat rendered). Most of the steak was unable to be chewed. It did have a great tasting chimichurri sauce (ate that all). My friends had the same thing..... nearly three complete steaks returned to the kitchen. The steak was a price I was expecting at a higher end restaurant. I will consider that a donation to a learning environment, but won't likely be back for second lesson.

This is in the Kirkwood Hotel in Cedar Rapids. I had lunch here with colleagues and it was really good. Great gluten free options with a nice carrot/ginger soup and a salmon filet with a great dill sauce. For dinner I had the seared duck breast. Very tasty but they missed on the crispy skin.

My every week go to place for my happy hour. Jared, Josh and Gabe have been the great bartenders for me and my coworkers. Their happy hour is 2 for 1 from 4-6 from Monday through Friday. Their cocktails are one of the go to ones. If you would like to appreciate a great Manhattan a great Old fashion, you should definitely stop by. I am fan of theirs Heated Mule as well, a nice spicy flavor to a cocktail and guess what they use grey goose to make their Mules. Once tried their dessert some chocolate cake with housemade vanila ice cream from their food menu and guess what I flipped to a lightest and tastiest chocolate cake ever. A tip - So if the bartender is Jared order margarita, if Gabe is bartending order Heated Mule and if Josh is working then go for Old Fashion. All of them make great Manhattans.

Great place where young culinary students are honing their skills in the food service industry. Service is top notch with food quality to match. Give it a try you will not regret it.

Great outdoor patio. Jacob is an excellent server. Loved the house made salad dressings and the lentil dish. Tasty cocktails.

Fantastic food, fantastic staff. Their waiter Jacob is unique and a real gem. We were treated with some fantastic food and an outstanding tenderloin steak with good crust and of course very soft inside. It could have been the best steak of the last couple of years. And, oh, the dessert...heavenly...

The class act is a restaurant in the Kirkwood hotel. It is staffed by students in the culinary department, giving the students a unique hands on experience that prepares them for the working world. The menu runs the Gambit with several veggie options as well as soups sandwiches and desserts created by the students. The servers are also participants in the program giving all students a chance to see the world from the front and back of the house. If you ask nice they will show you the class rooms . A truly unique experience very recommend.

Great food! We had a large party and they were able to accommodate us. The crab cakes are delicious!

The awesome and best service and food the best place for you and your GF pamper them then stay at the luxury hotel the best I guarantee trust me!!

Even knowing this was essentially a student-run business, I was lead to expect a lot more. Nothing about this experience was fine dining. The hotel is unremarkable and there is little to no direction guiding you to the restaurant as a local guest. It is tucked immediately off the lobby and hallway. The decor is modern, but cheap. Despite the staff being dressed formally, there is no dress code - meaning we were dressed up for date night sitting next to a pair in fishing attire. The feeling was like being in some sort of fancy restaurant TV set that was arranged in the middle of a hotel lobby? As far as service, we were promptly greeted and seated. Everyone we interacted with was courteous and attentive. The most disappointing aspect was the food. When you're paying this much for a meal, it has to be right. We ordered the filet mignon and the pork chop. The flavors were not good, but on top of that our steak was overcooked and the pork was cold like it'd been sitting. The potatoes that came with the steak were delicious while the risotto with the pork tasted like undercooked bacon and cheese rice-a-roni. The seasonal vegetables were flavorless. We wanted dessert, though not being able to touch our entrees didn't really set the right mood. I wanted to chalk the ordeal up to a student-made meal and just head home, but right as we were leaving my boyfriend pulled aside one of the hosts. It was our anniversary and we were trying to have a special evening and he just couldn't leave it like that. After we expressed our disappointment, they were adamant about making it right. In all fairness, we hadn't spoken to our waitress or given them the opportunity to fix our food, so we didn't expect much. They were generous enough to give us a gift card to comp part of our meal so hopefully their brunch menu will be a better experience!

This is the best eating we've had since relocating to CR. We were told that Popoli was THEE place in CR - and we were really disappointed. This is the place - a school/student based kitchen and dining room. We had Crab Dip, Pork Ribeye, Duck, Flourless Chocolate Cake, and the Panna Cotta. Everything was delicious. We'll be going back for brunch soon!

Q Our first a visit , but definitely not the last. We celebrated our 70th anniversary and cou believe the quality of food and service. One of the best steaks cooked t perfection and delicious. Dan our waiter was very helpful and attentIve. We will definitely be back.

I am staying at the hotel for a week on business. I was initially very impressed by the facility and service. After being taken out to dinner by coworkers last night, I was looking forward to checking out The Class Act restaurant for dinner. I arrived back at the hotel at 6:30 p.m. and walked straight into the restaurant where a very nice gentleman expained to me that they had no seating for one person at the rurestaurant all evening because it was their special World culinary Tour event night. However, he stated that singles could be served the full menu at the bar and the three tables located directly outside of the bar. Two people were sitting at the bar and the three tables were empty. I sat down at one of the tables and proceeded to wait... and wait ... and wait ... I never saw anyone behind the bar, and after over 30 minutes I walked back to the restaurant and asked if anyone was serving in that area. The gentleman went and checked and came back and said "he's behind the bar." When I asked if I needed to order at the bar, he said "no, I'll send him out." It was a big mistake to stay, but I was very hungry after a long day working. The "service" was indifferent/aloof throughout. I started with the house salad, which was very good. However my knife was taken away before the short ribs were served and by the time the bartender returned to the bar (he never came back to the table) and I got a knife, they were cold and tough. To his credit, which resulted in a one star rating being increased to two, when the bartender returned with my check he finally asked how everything was (apparently not noticing that I only took one bite). I said "not good" to which he replied "I'll take care of that." He returned with the desert menu and offered me a complimentary dessert. I looked at the menu, and since they had my favorite, creme brulee, I ordered that. It was fine, but I really wish I had a car (there is NOTHING nearby) and had left and had an actual dinner.

The best restaurant in Cedar Rapids. Food, staff, and ambiance are all top notch. Reasonably priced. Again, the best place to eat in all of Cedar Rapids!!!

I was so impressed with our beautiful, delicious meal at the Class Act. We ordered the Ribeye (fantastic), the angus bavette (flank steak), the Halibut and a burger. Everything was prepared perfectly and presented in a elegant fashion! The bavette was especially delicious in my opinion. I will absolutely return for the food (very well-priced, I might add) and for the upscale fine dining experience. The service is excellent and the ambiance is sophisticated- the hotel connected to it is gorgeous. Don't miss out on dining here, you won't be disappointed. I wanted to add that the produce and the beef are grown/ produced nearby and that they have a very cute small bar that serves upscale cocktails and drinks. A+ all around. FIVE STARS!!!!!

We came here for dinner on a Friday evening after hearing positive reviews. Unfortunately, we had a disappointing experienced. We ordered the ribeye and the lamb. Both meals came with a soup. The soups were actually pretty good - potato leek soup and the Argentinian chorizo soup. When the lamb arrived, we almost laughed out loud at the size of the portion. Two little chops with barely any meat on them whatsoever. To make matters worse, the chops were utterly flavorless. No flavor whatsoever. The garnish, however, was very good. We left hungry. The ribeye (I asked for medium well, which usually comes with a pink center) was burnt. The vegetables were too crunchy for my taste, but the potato cake was good. For dessert we had coconut cheesecake with mango glaze, which was very tasty; and a tiramisu, which was very good. I know that open kitchens are a thing now, but this particular kitchen was extremely noisy and the exhaust system didn't seem strong enough to keep the cooking smells out of the dining area. We don't think we will be returning. What a shame.

Everyone should try this place. Food is excellent and the atmosphere is superb. Go there for a special occasion or just to try something new. The waitstaff is very accommodating and professional. You will not be disappointed with anything you try and you will want to come back again. Easy to find and get to. Perfect for anyone that lives in Cedar Rapids or Iowa City.

The Class Act Restaurant on the Southside of Cedar Rapids is by far one of the best tastes in Iowa. Leo said "The steak is in one of the top two steaks he has ever eaten an a restaurant". We had the Christmas Eve Special with Mussels as the appetizer. Yes Mussels in Iowa! And they were delicious cooked in a light wine sauce and I didn't even have to fight over the last bite. The creamy risotto rice with blue cheese mushrooms was the best rice mixture I've ever had. Bursting flavors in my mouth. The steak was perfectly prepared, medium rare, sliced easily and just melted in my mouth. The red peppers and asparagus sautéed just enough to maintain their color, crunch and original flavor. They have culinary art students working in 3 kitchens in the back and they hire them to work in the main kitchen who serves the restaurant. I just want to shout out Kirkwood, for having the best restaurant in Iowa. Thanks Mindy Sue for telling me about it because I still can't stop thinking about it 10/10 recommend! Awesome dining experience

The Class Act is a wonderful atmosphere with great ambient lighting and very sweet wait staff. I love that this is a place for the college students to learn and perfect their craft. Much love from Iowa City! My only suggestion is more upbeat music in the A.M. I was sleepy enough already!

It's true, we had an amazing time. The boyfriend and I went to the Class Act to celebrate our one year anniversary, and what a good choice it was. Despite a minor hiccup in the seating arrangements at the beginning, once we were at our correct table things went smoothly. We were give a very romantic and intimate round booth table under a beautiful chandelier, set with care. We started off with the Local Butchers Block, then selected the Lamb Wellington and New York Strip for our entrées. The Butchers block had one item in particular that really caught my attention pickled radishes, such a combination of flavors, you have bitter to sweet to savory such a flavor experience. Oh and my Lamb was so delicious I almost didn't want to share a bite, and the New York strip had great seasoning on it. The end of our meal we were told dessert was on them, so we selected the Signature Flourless Chocolate Cake, and the Deep Dish Lemon Poppy Seed Pie. When it was delivered we were surprised they wrote "Happy Anniversary " in chocolate on the plate, such a special touch.. Again the flavors were so delightful that I had to wrestle a bite from the boyfriend of his cake. In the end, this place is such a treat. If it's a date night or a place to meet old friends, this is a wonderful place to treat all your senses, and it keeps you wanting to come back for more. Till next time, keep it classy.

Everything here was awesome! Food was very well made. Everything tasted delicious. Hospitality was really nice too. It is located in a pretty boutique hotel - Hotel Kirkwood, so it has that fine dining but casual ambience. Will definitely be back!

Really had to put some thought into this review. When we walked in the place is so inviting. Open and roomy and very elegant. We were seated in a booth that was very comfortable. Downside....my view was into the kitchen, while this can be interesting, I really dontbwany to look at a kitchen while I'm dining. Our waitress was great. She really knew what high end service is. We visited late on a Sunday afternoon and the brunch menuwas still being served. Not a problem it looked really interesting. We had the mushroom omelet which was good and the Cuban. Not a bad Cuban but far from the best I've ever had. One downfall was the flies and fruit flies flying around. Not swarms but enough to irritate. It's was alright, but I'm not sure I'd run right back.

The Class Act is just that, everything was good to better than good and classy without being overstated. The service was smooth and attentive, the food delicious and satisfying. Light salad, good portions, tasty freshly made burger, and delicious desert. The atmosphere nice, clean, modern, upscale. The lighting is perfect for intimacy and the music soft jazz of a bygone era brought back home to settle you into an intimate experience. Fully recommend The Class Act and the prices for each meal quite reasonable so you leave satisfied in every way.

This place is faaaancy!! My literal only complaint is it was so fancy I wasn't quite sure how to eat my food! So who knows if I did it right?! Right or wrong it was scrumptious! The wait staff was very helpful. If you decide to go with any of the seasonal dishes their served almost as tapas, it's suggested to order 2-3 a person or roughly 6 per 2 people. I ordered 3, I got the EGGPLANT POT DE CREME with charred berbere carrots/yogurt (his one was the hardest to eat, I am a clean eater and I made a total mess with this one... oops! It's a little on the peppery side but yummy none the less), TULIP TREE FOXGLOVE CHEESE with trail mix toasts/apricot compote (drool!) and one of the soup du jors which was white bean and kale. All delicious! My husband had the CLASS ACT BURGER which is grilled 8 oz HK beef patty, smoked colby cheese, traditional garnish, cherrywood-smoked bacon, aioli, challah bun. That's his go to. He looooves it! We finished our dinner off with the AMARETTO CRÈME BRÛLÉE with thyme-poached plums, toasted almonds and the CARROT CAKE PILLOW with cream cheese mousse, walnut praline crisp, pineapple sauce, hokey pokey ice cream. Desserts were with every penny. We will go back for sure!

The food at The Class Act is always stellar and the customer service is great! The atmosphere is terrific as well!

I love the World Tour!! Whoever came up With this idea is a genius!! My husband and I have been at each event this far. We have enjoyed the foods, flavors and experience. This experience provides us with opportunities to critique dishes, research authenticity, and enjoy the wonderful creations. There have been some dishes we loved, some dishes we would not try again. But what we love the most was the bold the chances taken with the menu, and the ability to have a new experience. I hope The Class Act continues with this theme!

Best dinning experience in the Corridor. The students are always attentive and learning. But the Salmon on the menu is always a favorite. We don't have many Seafood places in Cedar Rapids. But their salmon is always cooked to perfection. Their drink list is a hit and miss. Try it out

The service is always impeccable, fast, friendly and professional. The food is delicious and the environment is clean, bright and quiet. It is one of my favorite places!

It took quite a while for the drinks and food to come out, but we were thankfully not in a hurry. The wait was worth every second when our food came out! I got the corned beef hash and it was one of the best I've ever had! Wonderfully flavorful, the potatoes (including sweet and regular) mixed with onions, green peppers, pieces of real corned beef, cheese, and spices that paired well made it a dish to write home about. My fiancé had the steak and eggs with a similarly wonderful experience. If you have a few hours to have a slow-paced brunch, this is the place to be!

3.5 stars. This restaurant boast an elegant vibe and largely good food - I imagine it would be a pretty good place to bring a date. In general, we found the desserts were excellent, the main courses were pretty good, and the appetizers were a bit wanting, so plan accordingly! On the "very good" side, we really enjoyed the ribeye roulade and the Asian-spiced short ribs. Both mains featured very tender and well-flavored meats. We tried the house salad as an appetizer, which didn't work very well, but it was a very good salad and it would have made a fine entree. On the dessert side, I think my favorite was the bread pudding (possibly because the peanut butter ice cream was so divine, especially on the hot dish). We also really liked the red velvet cheesecake (very rich!) and the carrot cake pillow. On the less good side, I found the bollito misto bland as all get out. The eggplant pot de creme is an oddly deconstructed dish and it's difficult to put back together in a way where the flavors work together. The scallion challah was fine, but not significantly better than the free bread so why bother? The creme brûlée itself was good, but the poached plums were tough and kept separate from the dish - we would up leaving it behind on the plate because we couldn't cut it! Service was efficient and courteous, and they have a nice selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. Overall, I would go back to support the mission, but I'd focus on beef-based mains and save lots of room for dessert!

If you had a 3D chart where the axis's were: presentation, taste, and cost, this one may win the efficiency of the 3. I've had the burger multiple times before to go and it's just a one of a kind. The presentation of the burger, with the way the cheese is melted and the baby ketchup bottles are a cool addition. The taste is always great, and for $12, I've gotten way less quality burgers. This was one of our first times being there AT the restaurant and it is detailed and classy!

Excellent fine dining. Nice atmosphere. Good service. Good concept. Reasonably priced.

Found the hotel from trip advisor and decided to try it out on a road trip. The restaurant in the hotel is a hidden gem. Had the filet with veggies and it was cooked to perfection. My husband had the duck and he ate every bite! Definitely a must try in Cedar Rapids.

Really disappointed in our meal last night. I have been here a number of times and never had food this poor. We had a party of 8. Other then us, there was a single table of 1 and another similar size party that came in after us. Across the party, we had someone order a salad, the trout, grilled cheese and the rest had burgers. Only one burger was requested with no pink. The rest of the orders ranged from medium rare to medium. It took forever for our food and it came out in weird shifts but EVERY single burger was cooked well done and beyond. Like to the point of almost burnt. Incredibly dry and tasteless. The other non-burger meals were without complaint. In the restaurants defense, we didn't complain as based on how long it took to get our food, we just let it go. Our server was amazing, funny, attentive so no reflection on him at all. I believe his name was Matthew.

Dined on a Saturday evening. Decor was modern and crisp. Started meal with Thai Shrimp which was flavorful, but seemed more Jamaican then Asian. The mango sauce was phenomenal. Pistachio and goat cheese salad with vinaigrette was proportioned ideally. Duck was exceptional and there was no fussing when my date and I requested to share ( they dual plated without us having to request ).. Soup was salty ( kale, onion ,quinoa). The bread was flavorless and the butter was over taken by the herb)... It was a slow night so I understood the over anxiousness of the waiter to clear and check in .. 3 different musics could be heard while dining which was a bit unfortunate ( wedding,dining room , kitchen ) Fair prices. Bathroom in lobby. Presentation of the food was well thought out and pleasing.. Overall, good experience. We will be back .

It can be a little frustrating when they get things wrong, but I think I agree this is a great place to go and I would come back. The décor is kind of amazing for being sort of in the middle of a bunch of fields and far suburbs of Cedar Rapids. It feels like a downtown hotel. The entire staff is very young and obsequious, sometimes too much, but that's how it goes. I thought my meal of rack of lamb was really terrific. Some others were not so happy, including finding actual string used to tie up the meat. (on some sort of pork dish) The main problem is all of the service is verrrrrry slow, and the drinks service is unbelievably slow. Like it is super nuts how slow it is getting drinks. Perhaps if they could speed up the drinks we wouldn't mind the other slowness!! A group of 6 got in two drink orders and deliveries during a roughly hour and a half. That was the part that really upset some of us. They do have some interesting cocktails on the menu, but nothing worth having again. I found the bathroom, which is very far away from the dining area, and I saw some kid in the bar obviously struggling with receipt paper and mixing drinks. Well, best of luck to him!

Out standing! I grow produce for the Class Act, and I've always been impressed when I 'product sample'. The Potato Leek soup in the fall is heavenly, and the Bison burger is beyond pleasuring for lunch. Pricing is very appropriate! Comparable to the current Chilli's and Applebee's pricing, but has way better food and service!

The most consistently excellent food in the city. The menu changes often, reflecting what fresh local products they find. The meals are prepared by the culinary arts students, working with professional chefs. Save room for dessert, it can be one of the highlights of the meal.

Driving through Iowa from the East Coast to the West Coast, we decided to find a healthier choice than typical roadside fare. We saw that Class Act, a student run restaurant affiliated with the local college had excellent reviews. I ordered the chicken salad and radish soup of the day and snagged a bite of my sisters "Brunch Burger". My virgin cocktail "Larson's Lemonade" was served to me by the creator of the drink Mike Larson who said to me "I'm Larson so you'll never have better"! It was refreshing and delicious! I've eaten great cuisine in various cities worldwide and the service, farm-fresh flavorful meat and veggies and beautiful clean environment are on par with the best of the best. Extremely affordable with entrees at around $12, I felt satisfied and well-fed. Thank you, Class Act for living up to your name!

5 of us came on a Sunday Night looking for some great food and, despite a lengthy wait, we were impressed. When we came in we were the only people in the restaurant. The atmosphere was great, they even seated us under this big assortment of glass balls (sounds weird but it was pretty neat). We ordered our food and bread came out shortly. About 30 long minutes later, our salads and soup came out. My salad was great, but the wait made it hard to enjoy. After another 30 minutes or so, our entrees came. I had ragout with chicken, and because of the wait, my outlook was a bit dismal. I was pleasantly surprised with the dish and it filled me up adaquately. The waitress even brought out a side of garlic bread as consolation for the wait. Reluctantly, we ordered desert. I got an apple galette with salted caramel ice cream. The ice cream was heavenly. The galette was impeccable. The dish tasted like it had been graced by God. Overall, The Class Act had excellent food, but if you have any sort of agenda ahead of you, this is not the joint for you.

Fantastic food. The restaurant is led and worked by students but you would think you are at a 5 star restaurant in a major metropolitan city. Cocktails were fantastic and the Ribeye was spot on with a nice reduction sauce and pesto. Served with asparagus and half marinated onion. I travel 80 percent of the time and this is one of my new favorite restaurants to visit.
