Yoshinoya UCLA — Restaurant in Los Angeles

This was honestly one of the worst campus dining experiences I’ve ever had — and I’ve been to many university restaurants across the U.S.

While visiting UCLA, I decided to try this restaurant due to its convenient location. Unfortunately, that’s the only good thing I can say. The food was awful — I ordered their most expensive dish (ribeye with chicken), and it was drowned in a strange, overly salty sauce. The rice felt undercooked, and the entire meal tasted like it came out of a dumpster.

It might have been because lunch rush was just over and we were eating late, but still, a campus restaurant should be used to that. Food itself was a little watery and flavor was blander than other Yoshinoya's I've been...
