The space can be rented out for your own private party, with catering from any of the Western Concepts (Lobby Bar, Musashi's, Sushi Neko, Coach House, etc). They have a large private room as well as a beautiful outdoor patio. They also have a beautiful working kitchen, which is home to cooking classes by local chefs, and has also been used for local cooking shows. I think a few local chefs have also filmed pilot TV shows for cooking shows here, since it's set up for that as well. The folks who work for Western Concepts are among the best in the OKC food scene. They are always trying inventive menus and will work with you to create the event of your dreams, within your budget. They recently catered an event that I hosted at Savory Spice Shop, just around the corner, and I loved the creativity that went into making the menu. Bonus of having events here: your guests have access to a huge parking lot, nice restrooms and a beautiful new entry hall. With Lobby Bar nearby, they can enjoy a drink in the bar before of after.

We had a load of fun. The chef was great, the dinner delectable, and the couple we were paired with delightful. All of the hard work, the prep, was ready for us when we started, and of course we had no clean-up The mushroom duxelles is a French mushroom mixture made by finely chopping mushrooms, shallots, and herbs, then sautéing them in butter until the moisture has evaporated and the mixture forms a paste. The paste is then spread on the puff pastry that is then wrapped around the beef. Each cooking table (station) was occupied with two couples assigned per station. This arrangement is perfect for friends that want to enjoy the experience together. On the down side there is no seating, so be prepared to stand for two hours while you are cooking and enjoying the fruits of your labor, eating at the cooking station where you prepared the meal. The experience was fun and enjoyable, and even Jan who is an excellent cook, left with a few new tips. They allow you to bring one bottle of wine per couple. The cost was $100 per person.

They have them too, seasonal and every day. Right now they have Halloween and Thanksgiving settings, along with some Christmas. The prices are appropriate for the high end selections. You will not find Revere Ware sets, not that there is anything wrong with that brand. I still have a set from my wedding forty years ago. They carry Staub and Le Creuset, and a few other high end cookware sets or single pots/pans. Staff members are so kind and helpful, offering a fresh cup of coffee as you walk in the door. Chef Deborah cooks in the center of the store. She offers sweets such as quick breads, along with savory dishes - so delicious. WS hosts a variety of cooking classes with Chef Deborah as well.

I went to attend this year at MNTC to be filled with disappointed, but maybe it was the class I…read morechoose. I was in cybersecurity program with a teacher named Mrs. Millican, If you're an adult looking for cybersecurity program, this is not the one or at least the first year, I spent half the year with no teacher & when she did come in, we would go over maybe 5-10 page slides & that would be all the teaching she would do for the whole day, & she would sit at her desk, on her phone & do her own school work while she had 18 kids to teach by the time the end of the semester rolled around, 3 out of the 18 students passed the core 1. Overall MNTC cybersecurity is abysmal, you sit front on a computer watching several 10 mins video, with no teacher because she didn't know or how to engage with us, no hands on learning. There's a reason Oklahoma is ranked 49th in edu & unfortunately this class proved why.

I am a adult student in the esthetics program. Francis Tuttle has a a lot of potential. There is a…read morehuge opportunity to learn but the teachers just do not teach. I've learned more from the am highschool esthetic teacher and she literally came in and talked to us for a hour. Our teacher will do 1 demo on a subject 1 time and throw us to the wolves. Everything is on us. If we have questions our questions aren't even answered correctly. I don't trust that I'm getting the right information so I have to resort to YouTube... Which is kind of insane in this field because we are literally working on peoples faces..... Once she teaches us the demo we are expected to practice on our classmates but if we are doing it wrong we'd never know because our teacher doesn't watch what we are doing ever. If you want to learn anything about lashes DONT COME HERE because we no longer can even practice tabbing on mannequins due to our teacher not knowing how to do it. This review was made in 2024 idk if anything has changed but I found this in my drafts and thought I should post it.

If you're planning on joining the adult esthetician program at the Rockwell campus, I recommend…read moregoing elsewhere. The instructor, Ms. Stevenson, needs to retire or be replaced. She barely teaches, constantly contradicts herself, and seems more interested in appearances than actually helping her students succeed. For example, she once tried to put a student on academic probation, which means you're considered behind and can't perform services. But that student had already completed all of her work. Only after being pushed to pull up the assignments did Ms. Stevenson admit the truth. She often doesn't know where her students stand yet is quick to punish. Her grading and rule enforcement are inconsistent. At the start of the course, she told us we could listen to music but not watch TV. Later, I was listening to music with one earbud in--still able to hear if she spoke to me--and she suddenly claimed music wasn't allowed. She dismissed me instead of addressing me respectfully. She bends or changes her own rules whenever it's convenient. When students need actual support, she avoids extra work. For instance, she refuses to submit student hours at 500/600 so we can test sooner and get work permits, saying it's "extra paperwork." That decision directly delays careers but she won't help. Her attitude is dismissive and unprofessional. She rolls her eyes when asked for help, forgets things, and refuses to take accountability. She once yelled at me for performing a service I had asked permission for, then laughed it off without apologizing. She only makes an effort when being observed by higher-ups--otherwise, she leaves us to figure things out through classmates or videos. She also creates a toxic classroom environment by talking negatively about students to others. Surveys we complete every few months only frustrate her instead of helping her improve. Once, she even yelled at a student for submitting a survey question about correcting their attendance name, even though it wasn't directed at her. After surveys, she's openly mad at students instead of reflecting on her own teaching. This isn't my first negative experience here. My first nail tech teacher acted the same way--disengaged and self-focused--before retiring. She even put me on academic probation and failed me without telling me, despite proof I was caught up. My second teacher, however, was amazing--so I know the program can work when the right instructors are in place. Now, with Ms. Stevenson, it feels like the same problems all over again. I've heard from others that she's been receiving poor reviews for years, which makes me wonder why she's still here. Students deserve a teacher who actually teaches and respects them. I don't expect perfection, but I do expect professionalism, support, and mutual respect. Instead, this program leaves students frustrated, unsupported, and constantly second-guessing their own progress. That should be a serious concern for anyone considering enrolling.
