Grizzly Grill remains unbeatable but many other food options remain lacking for thr price. Some staff can be rude but most are nice. The BD is in desperate need of a remodel.Note: add a dedicated chicken stall!

My heart aches each and every day for those who did not experience BD in its pre-COVID glory. Good turkey burgers

Big fan of the bears den. Kosher section is the best with stir fry as a close second. Egg sandwiches have gone downhill over the years but inflation amiright?

The quality of the food has fallen drastically downhill since I’ve been here. I have been disappointed to see the quality of food fall from third in the nation to what it is now. The staff are amazing and kind and the burden of the downfall is not on them - they remain a bright spot of my time here. I especially miss the fresh naan.

Grilled cheese at the grill is the most delectable grilled cheese I’ve ever had in my life. They put the right amount of different cheeses. Absolutely delicious.

2am tater tot’s hit different your house and a half is the card. Well, I love the Indian section of bears than it needs to happen more often. He did say everything Pikachu

Good service but pretty repetitive menu. Menu is more limited than 4 years ago, but that’s to be expected after Covid. Closes too early. My favorite is the pasta.

The egg sandwich is the best thing on the menu, but it takes a while. Pasta and stir fry get old quickly.If you want something new everyday, Cherry Tree is a real treat. I highly recommend the deli sandwiches during lunch time or the desserts.

Starting with the Kosher station, it’s lacking. Stir-fry is prepared yaki-soba noodles but is quite exquisite. Great dining experience, overall. Can’t wait to come back.

This is a fine dining establishment, like seriously gourmet. While the culinary experience wavered in the wake of the global pandemic, this year has proved to me that the staff shows a real commitment to students. The only thing that could currently better butter my bread, so to speak, more effectively is if they reintroduced their fine chicken and waffle delicacy.

This is a wholesome venue, a place where one goes to create memories. There are a variety of options that one can go to. For example, pasta (not worthy of Italy though), pizza (same thing), half and half (fries and fried chicken), etc. The staff is lovely. However, I must reveal an annoyance. They changed the fries, my favorite in the world, and I have never been angrier.

I must say, as dining hall food goes, this is fairly okay. Sometimes the shrimp is undercooked and the salmon is over cooked but the vibes are great. The pasta station has gone downhill since freshman year, and the fries took a steep dive after the pandemic but it’s ok because now there are onion rings. If you go you MUST stop by Paws to say hi to Dorothy and remember to shake your drink. I really appreciate the composting effort here (fun fact—if a clear plastic cup says green ware, it can be composted!) although boxed water still makes me uncomfortable. I would give five stars if they brought back the plastic trays—those were truly a staple of freshman year sledding on art hill.
