TL;DR: Got led into a closet, sexually assaulted (minor) and verbally coerced (attempted, anyways) to have sex with the male owner just barely after turning 18.
I'm not the first and probably not the last of his harrasment.
Didn't ever even try their food or beverages. 10/10 Do NOT Recommend.
Two and a half years ago just after turning 18, on my lunch break I'd approached this stand (this being the stand-alone stand on the far wall, close to the bathrooms) to purchase some coffee and food for my manager and I. The male owner of the stand had taken an interest in me (seen me around before and said hi, minor flirty), approached me and talking to me, had offered me to go on a quick walk with him. Me, being naïve and thinking we're just going to walk outside where the lake fountain was, instead led me through the back hallway of the foodcourt and into a closet midway through (towards right-hand side). Coercing me to follow him, as I was hesitant to follow at first and again after entering the back hallway, in which he told me to "keep up" with him. The closet didn't have a lock on it, and he wasn't violent, so I didn't gouge his eyeballs out. Instead, while he was basically salsa-dance-stance cornered me, hands around my waist and trying to kiss me, I talked him out of it, saying that I was only on a 30min lunch break, that I wanted food and that I needed to get my manager coffee. I talked him out of it.
When I got back to my store I told my managers, then filed a report with campus security. Security asked me to press charges, I decided against it because I wasn't hurt or violated, just extremely shaken. The Security officer confided in me that I was not the first one to report him for "questionable or inappropriate behavior". I have no evidence to back this claim up other than witnesses of the night that wasn't there WITH me at the time of that happening, possible camera footage, and the security report I filed.
Also, he's married too and his wife helps run this stand. Know you guys will see this and I know especially him would remember this if he can remember...

Read moreI would give zero stars if I could! Overpriced disgusting food that I waited 15 minutes for. Ceaser salad looked nothing like the description (resembled bagged salad with dry yellow chicken, no Parmesan). I asked for garlic dressing on the side and they covered it in Caesar anyway. When I asked for a refund they told me they didn’t know how to do it and I would have to wait for the manager to get there. After waiting another 10 minutes I became impatient and asked them to call the manager again to walk them through it. They then informed me the manager doesn’t offer refunds and he would tell me the same thing. When I asked why I wasn’t told that from the beginning, they had no answer for me. They offered to remake my food after reprimanding me for letting them know how unsatisfied I was with my experience. Didn’t get my money back and will...
