Experience OCI’s unique restaurant, where lunch and dinner are prepared and served by students.

Oregon Culinary Institute offers a unique advantage over other culinary schools in that we have an open-to-the-public fine-dining restaurant, operating five days a week for both lunch and dinner. Under the guidance of chef instructors, students execute a complicated three-course menu for lunch, and a four-course menu for dinner – contributing in menu design; product selection; kitchen, line and dessert production; plate presentation; beverage service; and restaurant management.Our restaurant is a classroom – offering real-world experience – to students and customers alike. Join us.
