What customers say?

“ I really like their salad bar and that there are lots of veggie/protein/grain options, soups, and desserts. It can get very loud when it is crowded, but when the crowd dies down it is a good place to get a variety of good food and drink. The food servers could be a little friendlier, but the entry ladies and other workers work hard and are really nice. I wish they didn't have as many salad dressings with soybean oil. ”

“ I hear a lot of complaints about the dining hall from students, but it honestly isn’t that bad. Granted, some of the food is genuinely pretty questionable like their chicken, but they have an ice cream bar which forgives most of their sins. ”
