I rarely leave reviews, but it feels like the staff has some level of discrimination. Until they improve and elevate their service, I wouldn’t recommend international students to go there, unless you want to endure their bad attitudes while having a meal filled with resentment.

TDLR: Common Ferris is better
Wide variety of AYCE food for in and out of campus consumers. They have a diverse menu that rotates on a daily basis with a stupendous drink selection! They boast a vegan section, salad/fruit bar, desert section, pasta, and proteins.
However, the food can get boring. The only protein they really serve is chicken and they reuse/reheat baked goods from days ago.
The dining hall fashions a quaint design and many dubbed it the Harry Potter hall. Yet, the hall is just so humid and sticky most of the time. There’s no AC and there’s like random power fans that’ll blow your wig and plate away everytime you walk past it ?
FSCI NSLC thanks for reminding me to review this place ?

Last week Monday on second week of class shopping. First time I went there in the evening never again! This worker was extremely rude and unwelcoming. I was trying to figure out what I wanted because all they had was chicken and beef. The lady shouting and getting so impatient when I wasn’t even there for 5 seconds. Since this lady seems to be the boss around there, all of them need to be trained on customer service they assume that everyone that comes there are under 22. Regardless of age they have no human decency, need to learn some respect or get a different job because she was so rude to the point where I almost lost my appetite just from that behavior alone. I don’t need someone with an abusive attitude and aggressive tone to be speaking to me before my meal and I hope all these cc and Barnard students speak up for themselves. As I am one of the mature students at Columbia GS so we most definitely know something is incorrect there!
Vegetarian options: Saw absolutely nothing besides fries but maybe at other times they do have this. Hopefully nobody shouts at you for asking.
Dietary restrictions: None. Hopefully nobody shouts at you for asking.

I worked here for 2 days and it was Great. It's located in Columbus University campus. The variety of foods made to perfection is everything including Vegan meals and halal food. Different dishes everyday at all stations there.

The food was fantastic and for VERY affordable prices (for non- students such as perspectives too!) They were very nice there and the cashier guided me to all my needs. They supply incredible Star K kosher food as well! Sadly even though the hall was packed it seemed as if everyone were very isolated from one another, like everyone tried to be alone.

So many choices! I love their salad bar. The chicken breast is the best ever, so soft and gorgeous!!
Nice place to get some snacks at Columbia. The lines can be harrowing at times though.

Good environment but Very Busy ...
More options than at Faculty House.
Gets the job done for a dining hall. Not worth visiting unless you are a student at Columbia.
The Columbia dining hall with the most variety. I always left here well-fed and happy.
This spot never fails to deliver. They have awesome dishes for affordable rates, there no long wait even when the place is packed.
