Thrive at Owen Hall

All the staff seems to be very mad and unwilling to help constantly. Since this cafeteria is for students with allergies, the options are naturally limited, but even then the kitchen staff never experiments beyond the same basic food: meat, a grain like rice or quinoa, a basic vegetable combo, and potatoes. I would love if the chef implemented more unique dishes.

In addition, starting this year, the cafeteria is closed on weekends. So even if you do have allergies, tough luck for you, because although The Vista at Shaw claims to be allergen-free on weekends, it is highly unlikely that the staff there would be able to completely rid the kitchen of all traces of allergens.

Do you guys still get the foreign students calling in bizarre, inedible-to-Americans pizza combinations and forgetting to pick them up?

The food is clean and all made in house. We use the freshest ingredients to make it clean and safe and alligeric free

Parking: The parking ramp on Shaw Lane can be full sometimes, but the ramp attached to the Wharton Center always has spaces.

Cafeteria for hypoallergenic students. The chicken tenders are bomb. Still no silverware though. Please bring back the dish service. The food is too good.

Very nice

Very nice

Great place, tasty food, smaller not so crowded... Also:"Located within Owen Hall in River Trail Neighborhood, Thrive is Certified Free From™ the Big 8 allergens (egg, fish, milk, peanuts, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat) plus gluten. A third-party auditor, reviews and approves all ingredients and recipes used within Thrive. Regular allergen testing is performed by Thrive team members and results are sent to the auditor monthly"

If it wasn't for the service this would have been a 4-star rev. The food at thrive is alright. Depending on what they serve we range from OK to Satisfying. But for some reason for you to interact with somebody who doesn't give you the feeling that he or she it's been here and hates serving you is rare. Not that there is noby (one dude is super friendly, he reminds of andy from Mordern family). I feel like a smile or at least eye contact can be improved

Really good food for being allergen free!?

Very good gluten free food. The cooking staff is very knowledgeable and kind. There is always a desert, and there is often chicken tenders. For $7.50 it’s hard to beat the price with for gluten free food (especially when it’s all-you-can-eat).

If your looking for an allergy free dining location don't count this place out.

Spectacular quality and flavor, unlike many allergen free dining experiences.

It was a very nice restaurant. If you have a chance to go by m.s.u. it will be a good choice for you.

Good food for college. Great selection of snacks and beverages.
