Bytes Cafe — Restaurant in Charlotte

The curried tofu at the sauté station with brown rice and grilled pita bread used to be my favorite but the last couple of times I went to Bytes they were not serving that.

One time they were serving a kind of pho soup which was too salty to enjoy and was served in non-recyclable plastic tubs. The other time it was some kind of stir fry which was very disappointing. The vegetables were not cut up into bite size pieces which made eating with plastic cutlery messy and annoying. There was no brown rice, only white. And there was no pita bread served with it, only a rubbery-looking fried egg. On top of all that, it was not stir-fried long enough and was cold by the time I got it to the table.

The salad bar is very basic and boring. The veggie burger at the grill station takes too long to make. The hot bar has no...

I miss the girl that used to make the pizzas. She was awesome! Her attitude was bad, but she did her job extremely well! I just bought a pizza like i do on Wednesdays, and looking at the station, it was messy. The mozzarella cheese had some pesto, the green sauce, splatters in it as well as some marinara sauce. My pizza was not cooked all the way. I got my pizza it looked fine, but once I start eating it i can tell the dough is not cooked all the way. It was not crispy; it was like a pancake that wasn't cooked all the way through so you could taste the batter. The edges of the pizza say it's done when in reality it should have stayed in the oven for a few...

They fired the girl who made the wood-fired pizzas, and I am so disappointed! Her attitude wasn't always the best, but her pizzas were delicious. The person who's doing it now does a terrible job; the marinara sauce has changed and is WAY too garlicky, the cheese on my pizza wasn't melted AT ALL, and half of the crust was burnt to a crisp, while the other half was soggy and the toppings kept falling off. With so few options to choose from on a daily basis for those of us who work in the building, why on earth would you mess with the most popular station in the cafeteria? Used to be a raving fan of the pizzas here, but I guess I'll be sticking with wraps...
