    There are not that many places to eat. The school's eating facility is a lot better than most. There are a lot of choices that are delicious. As for dining places through out the town, that is another story. There are not a lot of restaurants around to eat at.

    The Trojan Center Marketplace is where students can eat their meals. The food in there is pretty good and students have a variety of different foods to choose from. The TC Marketplace staff cares about the food and nutrients that the students need to take in so it's nice to have someone looking out for you.

    The food is pretty good, we have an buffet so we can eat all we want but the food selection can be a little bit better each day instead of eating the same food almost each day.

    the food service is excellent with service, cleanliness, and friendliness. unfortunately, that's about all it's good for. the food quality is 'edible', meaning it's not that good, but when you're hungry, you'll eat it. the worst time to get food (especially grilled or cooked food) is during the weekends. most of the time it's students running the kitchen during weekends, so the food quality is even worse. burnt pizza, hamburgers, no ketchup, ranch, condiments, and dirty tables are what to expect during weekends. overall, the food and dining leaves much to be desired.

    the meals are fantastic. living right next to the cafeteria has great advantages.
