    It is cafeteria food. The cafeteria does offer an awesome deli line, pizza and pasta bar, salad bar, desert table, hamburgers and fries line, stir fry, and two main lines. I like having the variety and breakfast is the best!

    Nutritionally gratifying, but does not hold one's interest for long. The provider does put out a lot of good food, but it quickly gets old among students.

    The food doesn't have that great of variety and sometimes it makes people sick. It get's really old really quickly. It is all you can eat though, but it's expensive.

    The food is a little scary. Where you can eat though is nice considering the sketchy food. There are other options too across campus that bring up the rating. Those are very nice as well.

    I do not eat at the dining hall, but I have eaten at the other food options on campus which are delicious, the food is excellent with a wide variety of choices.

    Food and dining is the only downside besides tuition. It is very convenient to get to but the quality of food was disappointing. I am definitely no longer using a 21 meal per week plan.

    Dining hall is alright...it's college food! There are some closer places to go it you just need a pizza and ice cream fix!
