Jane's

First of all, I really appreciate the service quality of the server. They are nice and polite.However, I don't quite satisfy with the food quality there.1) The Smoked Tomato Soup. The taste is great and well-balanced. However, when you look at the soup, it seems lightly warm. But when you taste it, it is really very hot. I suspect that soup is reheated by microwave and overheated as well.2) The Smoked Trout Tartine on toast. The ingredients are quite different from the menu. We can't taste any Herbed White Bean spread and Cream Fraiche. It is barely just a fish on top, so the whole dish becomes so dry.3) The Blueberry Tart. The tart shell is seriously under-cooked4) The Green Apple Bread Pudding. The bread pudding supposes to be moist but the moisture of my bread pudding is only 30%. The credit point is the whisky sauce taste good.

Awesome service. Everyone's very knowledgeable with the menu and helpful. Food is good and affordable.

Great food, friendly staff, and a cozy atmosphere. The menu had plenty of options and everything I tried was delicious, especially the steak. I highly recommend this restaurant for a fantastic dining experience.

Fantastic experience. Felt transported out of Winnipeg and into a fine dining meal anywhere in the world. Local ingredients, student run restaurant with attentive service and delicious food. Highly recommend.From the amuse bouche to the sweets with the bill, nothing was missed!

Love the affordable Crème brûlée I bought but dislike the dinning area being closed. The lunch we bought had to be eaten in our car. Wouldn’t even let me use the washroom. High security for paying customers.

Been here ussaly once ever other month basicly keep an eye on the changing menu and go when something sounds good. The cooking is spot on, the servers are ussaly good to very good as this is a student run resterant. Yes I plan to be back on the near future again.

This is a must if you are in Winnipeg. It is wonderful that RRC has this restaurant. It's win/win! Diners get the best of what the students have to offer and the students get to show off their talent. A special mention to our server Anu who was an amazing host and represented Jane's in the best possible way.

Ok, this is a great GREAT place. It's a training restaurant for Red River College's food services courses. The building is an historically important and beautiful building. It was an old bank and the restaurant is in the old public hall of the original bank, beautifully restored. (There is an additional fun historical connection as the International Brotherhood of Magicians was founded in the building last century, for anyone interested in magic. )The arrangement is to train food workers to work in 5 star elite restaurants so you are getting served by students under their teacher's supervision. The place is great, the service is wonderful, not always formally correct, (they might clear from the wrong side, or forget to mention today's special or something, and a quiet comment will waft through the air to remind them of correct protocol ) and the food is Devine. Sometimes there are experimental or very innovative dishes that the students have thought up and the results are fantastic. Today someone created mushroom chips, lightly seasoned and sauteed slices of mushrooms baked till crisp and crunchy, which were used to garnish a wonderfully rich tasty mushroom soup.My partner and I tried the pickerel and flank steak and we both loved them. We started with the mushroom soup, and the minestrone. As mentioned the mushroom soup was top notch, the stock of the minestrone was excellent, and the bits and pieces included chunks of chicken and cheese tortellini. Absolutely wonderful. Served with a selection of fresh baked bread and herbed butter it was a good start.The main courses were well cooked, very tasty and cooked perfectly. I had the flank steak, medium rare and it was juicy and perfect. Served with a special sauce ( super gravy dating to medieval french cooking techniques) and a very nice form of potatoes that were a cross between french fries and roasted potato wedges. The veg was string beans cooked perfectly. I enjoyed every byte. My partner had the pickerel and even though I am not a big fish fan I found it light and delicate with an interesting sauce. The mixed vegetables were well done and I will cheerfully try to emulate that side dish.Dessert was the chocolate chiffon with pickled raspberries, and the creme caramel. Both were delicious and interesting. I do not like raspberries, and frankly they tasted like lightly vinegar flavoured raspberries, but the chocolate was smooth and rich and light. The only complaint was the crumb crust was a touch tough as it was a bit too thick, but great taste. The caramel was another innovative approach, not a creme brulee, but garnished with sugar glass fibers they had a crunch that made it a cross between both.All in all, the price was good for the lunch I got, and I will definitely come back for a whack at the other dishes. Note though that the restaurant is open as part of the academic session, it is only open for another 5 weeks before shutting down till the next session. Check their webpage, and reservations are a must. Although it is a very fancy restaurant it is not enforced formality, casual dress is acceptable.There is parking around the place, but it is right on main street on the #18 route. This is a great place and I look forward to going again.

March 2023Every college that has a culinary program usually has a restaurant such as Jane's. We were not disappointed. We were on a Canadian vacation, so we booked a lunch reservation in advance.Set in a beautiful renovated historical bank building, the dining experience is stunning and impressive.A large menu and drink selection. Everything we had was delicious.The bread basket consisted of six breads and three flavoured butters, all made in-house. Yum yum yum!This is a teaching restaurant so that the students get experience. All of the staff (students) were quite good, and I didn't notice any nervousness or things to criticize during our time here.Check their website for reservations as days and times are limited.Apparently, if you want to eat dinner here, you need to reserve a table at least three weeks in advance.So for a great dining experience, come here to support the students and you will also get some delicious food to eat!

Great dining experience food, atmosphere, reservations required.
