"Wilson Chin's set plunge you deep into the men's world and their routines."– Alexis Soloski, New York Times
"A remarkable piece of photorealistic naturalism and is just what the script calls for."– David Barbour, Lighting and Sound America
"Congrats to set designer Wilson Chin for achieving the kind of verisimilitude that Arnold Wesker also stalked and captured in The Kitchen, his 1959 play that followed restaurant workers through a single morning to night slot."– David Finkle, Huffington Post
"Designed with expert detail by Wilson Chin."– Hayley Levitt, TheaterMania
"It is a spot-on recreation of the 'back of house' of a fancy restaurant– right down to the totally convincing set by Wilson Chin– where the four men fold linens, fill baskets with bread and buckets with ice, deliver the plates of food and return with the dirty dishes, in a ballet of efficiency."– Jonathan Mandell, New York Theater
