I already gave a little insight into the horrors of Cafe 3 in my review for unit 3 as a whole but I believe it deserves a review on its specific page as well. Cafe 3 is not far off from eating food straight out of a trash can in downtown LA. You may think it’s edible at first glance but once you try to eat it, it’s like chewing on a rock that taste likes puke from the depths of Hell. It just doesn’t make any sense since they serve the same dishes as Crossroads which are decent there but at Cafe 3 they work wonders to make it taste as bad as possible. If you can even make it to the dining hall props for you because there are so many flies at the entrance of unit 3 you’d think you’re in cow country. Don’t waste your time waiting in the outrageous lines for food you can’t swallow. Hope this reaches as many students...

The quality of the meals is comparable to Crossroads and other dining halls. I love that salads are always an option for lunch and dinner, and that there is usually some kind of meat available for these meals.

That being said, the dining experience you receive at Crossroads or Clark Kerr far exceeds the standards here at Café 3.
tl;dr: go to Crossroads...
