    Wonderful lunch with stellar service from Elliott and tasty food from the CIA Bakery Cafe student staff! We received an enthusiastic, friendly greeting from the lovely hostess and polite, efficient table service from Elliott. She was very patient, willing to find out the answers to our questions about food preparation, ingredients, etc...and happy to accommodate our special requests. My friend loved the winter farro salad (beautifully presented) and the butternut squash bisque. I enjoyed every bite of the delicious shrimp sandwich (excellent brioche bun and Cajun flavors from the rock shrimp) and the French omelette (it could have used more salt but that was easily remedied with a request for some to add myself) . We both purchased a few of the gorgeous, yummy pastry case items to take home. Kudos to the CIA students for their professional execution of both hospitality and cuisine! Looking forward to a few return visits before the annual cafe pop up ends!

    Always a great experience eating at any of the CIA venues. We’re from NY so we often visit Hyde Park and it was great to be able to have dinner here in San Antonio.

    The service is good and when that was a mistake with the order it was quickly corrected without hesitation. The food is good, and the value is excellent. It's one of my favorite places to dine.
