Only worth going to if you have a meal plan. Some of the dishes are significantly better than others, and it's a real gamble as to if they are serving something you like on any given day. If they aren't, then you are eating pizza and burgers for the 5th time this week. Needs to serve more food options and to use higher quality meat in their dishes. It's reasonably clean and not too crowded as long as you aren't there...

Standard college food, leaning on the side of less appetizing. Servers are not the most enthusiastic but many of them are college students so it's understandable. College student atmosphere.

If you are going out of your way to eat I would advise nearby locations first but the affordable price and amount of food you can eat may make it...
