First off, the location for our test was Woodburn. My teen daughter attempted a drivers test there…read moreand failed. I know a one star review on a failed test is suspect but let me continue. The place felt very sketchy, hand written sign, one employee. The lady was very odd. She just had the strangest demeanor, kind of brusque but also expecting us to know things we didn't know even about the sign in procedure. She failed my daughter on turning right with traffic coming too close. She slammed on the brakes when the approaching traffic was nearly a block away and going at residential speeds. She also pointed out stop signs like my daughter hadn't seen them, again when they were almost a block away. She also said my daughter didn't look behind her when she backed out, which she very clearly did. It almost feels like a scam, they get paid by the test, so having a high fail rate is good for profit. She expected my daughter to drive like a grandma with bad eyesight maybe? Seeing the intense reviews I feel bad as a parent I just jumped at the first appointment that looked close and didn't research the company first.

I had three driving lessons with Sir Nolan Daniels, and I'm truly grateful to have had him as my…read moreinstructor. He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging. Thanks to his guidance, I felt much more confident behind the wheel. When I took my drive test on 5/19 with Sir Rob, I was honestly very nervous because I had heard that examiners usually only give directions and do not really talk during the test. However, Sir Rob immediately helped ease that fear and made me feel more comfortable throughout the experience. Overall, my experience with ODEC was nothing short of excellent, and I would absolutely recommend them to my family and friends.

Greg doesn't just help with passing driver's tests, his tips and methods really focus on making you a great driver overall. He focuses strongly on being safe and provides tips and context for why we need to build certain driving habits. A holistic approach I really appreciated. An additional plus, he picks you up and you drive. No meeting up at an office which was extremely convenient for me. I highly recommend.

What waits for you is a fixed price menu of several courses designed by Chef and the South Salem HS Culinary students. I have had the pleasure of dining in what can truly be one of Salem's best dining experience on two separate occasions. Both times the Menu included two entrees, two desserts and creative starters, soups and salads. The best part of the dining experience is that you can be your own "Iron Chef" judge and provide useful feedback to the students on each course. If you like a "Chef's Table" experience where you are part of the foodie learning process then this is it! The servers are the students themselves which so far has translated into an impeccable level of service. I am looking forward to the next time. I would rather keep this an underground secret, but something this fun needs to be shared. Keep up the good work!
