I go a few times a week, since there are not a lot of options around my office, the price per pound to me is outrageous, over $12.00 and I don't even get that much, the small container. The ladies that ring you up are ok, not to friendly and a tad pushy. With the price per pound no thanks, I'll find a new place to go.

Customer service was horrible. I wanted to buy some food, then asked to use the bathroom And the lady working, they told me there’s no public restroom. Clearly there was a public restroom Because there was a big sign that said restrooms. It almost felt as though she did not want me to use the restroom because I was in African-American. She was very nasty and then when I proceeded to call the shop to speak to a manager, the phone did not work.

This is an ILC cafeteria in disguise. Muy expensivo. The only place I’ve had fried plantains that are dry. Actually I think they are regular bananas. Tia Maria would be ashamed. Or maybe they use a new recipe? Or maybe healthier method of frying? Try the toasted cheese sandwich instead. One of the stars covers the fresh fruit they have. With the price they charge by weight I hope they are paying their employees good wages. Haste la nun a if I can avoid this place.

I spend about $50/week in this place because my office is in the building. Today the cashier decides she’s now going to charge me for jelly when the omelette I ordered comes with toast. That’s like charging for ketchup when you order fries. A few weeks ago she charged me for extra cheese when I didn’t order any. Insane. Watch your receipts because they’re tacking on charges to run up the tab. I’ll take my business elsewhere.

I went to eat here and never again. I was never greeted when I walked in. I ordered two plates of food for me and my son with two drinks. I was never asked if I wanted a bag yet they are quick to charge for everything but didn’t offer a bag. I had to ask and she seems surprised that I wanted a bag with all the things I had. I was asked to sit outside the cafe rather than inside. I’ll never go here again. If I can give zero stars I would!!!!!

Dangerous food handling practices, manager is unconcerned when violations are brought to his attention and makes no effort to correct them, like lukewarm entrees in the steam tables. Massive health risk leaving meat dishes out semi-warm for hours.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I can see why they stayed shut down for such a long period after all businesses started to open back up. The food is never really good. It’s like bad DFAC (military cafeteria) food and will have your stomach hurting or have you sick. It’s a place to go to if you work in the building and have absolutely no time to grab lunch but you’ll regret it after consumption. I’ve had a few bad experiences here. The lady at the cash register is always nice and polite though.

Always fast service when I visit, with a good selection of hot buffet breakfast and lunch foods, as well as several made-to-order options.

1st time, long wait, but the food was good. 2nd time, longer wait, because there was only 1 person taking orders AND cooking. They also forgot my dressing on the side side. 3rd time, even LONGER waiteith 3 people behind the counter ! They then proceeded to give me someone else's order that had left (probably decided the wait was too long), they assured me that the burger was still hot, just off the grill. It wasn't!!! And it was slathered with mayonnaise which I said I didn't want. Definitely not going back!
