Tucked away near the end of SR-509 and just off So. 188th street is a little known diner called the Class Act Restaurant. This establishment features a unique dining experience due to the fact that it is operated by high school students who are enrolled in culinary training at the Puget Sound Skills Center. Enrollees attend from neighboring school districts from all around South King County including Highline, Tukwila, Federal Way and Tahoma.
It is these students who are learning the details of restaurant and kitchen operations and practice their skills by operating the 72 seat dining room three days a week, Wednesday – Friday. On these days they serve breakfast from 7-9AM and lunch from Noon-1PM. Since the restaurant is actually a ‘classroom’ they operate on full school days following the Highline School District Calendar. Refer to the Breakfast or Lunch pages for the specific days that they are open and to view what is currently being offered from the menu rotation.
