    Now the food in the cafeteria is ok at times. Everybody likes different things when it comes to getting a meal everyday. Some days I feel like I'm eating the best meal in the world and other days it's like ewww what am I eating.

    The cafeteria food is satisfactory. They change up the menu daily, while they also have the consistent foods (such as pizza, hamburgers & fries, salads, etc.). The campus also have a wing place, a knock off starbucks, and a Jazzman's (which is also like starbucks).

    The food is horrible! The employees are rude and at one time the dining room had a C- as a grade from the health department.

    The food is ohk. If you have a meal plan you can eat pretty much when you want. They just repeat the same meals everyday.

    The school cafe offers the same food, very little variety. Try Jazzmans or the Panther Den if you're looking for something different.

    The food is yummy. We have real trained chef's cooking for us. the cafe is open from 7 am-11 pm and it's pretty cool that all freshmen have an unlimited meal plan so we don't have to worry about always having to eat noddles and TV dinners.
