Broderick Dining Commons — Restaurant in Norfolk

Terrible staff and semi-terrible food. Most of the workers here have never seen a smile in their life. Came to campus to visit my daughter and explore the campus. Never have I seen a colder and disorganized staff.

Beginning with the front desk, I was "welcomed" with an aggressive grunt followed by a rude remark when I mentioned I'd be paying with my credit card. After this unwelcoming interaction, I made my way to one of the food stands. I was shocked by the apparent lack of knowledge in what was being served. The cafeteria server claimed that she did not know if she was serving beef or turkey (she was serving pork).

Additionally, for a school that prides itself in accommodations. This food court has all but nothing available for those with dietary restrictions. I understand COVID has been hard, but advertisements should be changed if only 1/2 the food court is operational. The vegan section, "Rice Sticks" section, and "chiefs section" is unoperational and labeled "coming soon."

To add insult to injury, the employees were aggressive and discouraging when asking about allergy options given the limited selection.

If you are paying for anything other than a quick bite, I would avoid Broderick...

During the first 2 weeks of their operation, they provided students delicious foods but then after all the “investors” left, Broderick dining commons started providing lesser quality food.

I think Odu messed up by spending thousands of dollars on this facility when they could have just improved the food quality...

Old Dominion University robs the students of their own money. The meals they serve are advertised as "gourmet' and "delicious" they even put down meals on their website that they NEVER DELIVER!! Ive had to spit up food on multiple occasions. The ODU dining services is bottom line disgusting. Everything may sound all well and good but go ahead and taste it. One bite in and you'll want your money back. I...
