What Students Are Saying

There are many different popular fast food places like Subway and Wendy's; plus there is a great buffet provided by UIC for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for only around 7 bucks!

food and dining is typically good quality, though some days are better than others. there are certain foods that are served everyday such as eggs, burgers, hot dogs, and chicken. each day there is a different "main entree" for lunch and dinner, which can range from baked mac and cheese to chinese or mexican themed food.

Again, being a commuter, I don't eat school lunches. But I hear that the only good lunches are in JST. UIC does have restaurants located in SCE in a place called Inner Circle, but eating there everyday may not be your best option because it's all fast food and will hurt your wallet over time.
