What Students Are Saying

The cafeteria is a bit expensive but there are lots of choices and it is pretty clean and spacious. My advice: bring your own food ! Homemade meals are always better and healthier, and you'll save a lot of money !
Caroline from Santa Monica, CA
Great healthy delicious foods!
Maxwell from Los Angeles, CA
SMC has a great selection of food on campus. There are lots of healthy choices. The best deal for your budget would be at Abbot's Pizza Company on Pico across the street from the college. They are always offering student deals for delicious meals.
Michelle from Los Angeles, CA
There are plenty of vending machines spread around the campus with some healthier options, in addition to the typical selections. The cafeteria offers a wide range of quick, on-the-go bites and many hot, tasty meals which can satisfy various ethnic cravings or a simple traditions of American dishes.
