Good food on campus, best I've seen.
» Read MoreThe food is ok, but compared to Brown University, the food is pretty good and a lot of the chefs are either current students or graduates from Johnson and Wales Culinary School
» Read MoreComing from the Bay Area in California, I knew the food wasn't going to be like anything at home. The food here is fine if you don't really mind or haven't experienced top notch dining. There are some quality restaurants in the area though.
» Read MoreI personally think the food served tastes good even after a few years. Vegan, pizza, soups, fruits, cereal, pastries, sandwiches, sushi, you name it. The grill options are the tastiest, and the ethnic foods are among the worst, except for the Mediterranean sample dish. However, if people do get tired of eating RISD food there are many good breakfast stores on Wickendon Street as well as restaurants on Thayer Street and downtown near 15 West (with good, varied ethnic foods, there are a lot of Koreans in town so you can look forward to kimchi and bibimbap). Every so often the multi-cultural clubs will hold events that feature native foods too, the Made in Taiwan club had yummy sausages, noodles and tea during their night market. Oh, and there's a Chipotle, Johnny Rockets, and Ben and Jerry's if you miss mainstream food.
» Read MoreThe food is amazing. On a campus visit they gave us meal tickets. Everything is organic, freshly grown, and delicious. There are options for vegans, vegetarians, and the chef accommodates all food allergies.
» Read MoreThe food is generally good here, the big cafeteria gets dull by the end of the year but otherwise it's fine. The freshman meal plan is awesome.
