Consistent, but beware of the guy behind the counter... 10/7/2007

The food is not great. Edible, yes. But very not great. They have some kind of machine that makes the entire corner smell like yummy Italian food, but once you get in there it's straight cafeteria/jail style. The food looks and tastes likes it's been sitting there all day. They mask the grossness with the aroma and the amount of food you can get for $10, but if you've ever been to Italy (yes, I have) or eaten really good Italian food (mmm...ditto there), then you know that this place is horrible. I mean, lettuce that has been marinating in dressing all day should not be considered a salad! The only saving grace is the deli section. They must use different hiring managers for each section of the building too, because for some reason the deli guys are cool, but the cafeteria guys aren't. I shouldn't take it out on the ENTIRE cafeteria staff. Actually, there's one guy in particular in the cafeteria that makes this place horrible. I think he was an old lady who used to work the elementary cafeteria lunch line in his former life (who was was severely abused, hasn't realized that he has a problem and has yet to break the cycle). In short, he is a total ($%*^&($&%. He's the one with the goatee and red hat. He never gets our order correct and then makes threatening faces, gestures and comments when he has to correct them. It happens 100% of the time. I live so close by, but I never want to go there because of that one guy! Back to the food...the cookies are good, the deli selection is good and overall it's edible. But I really, really hate that one guy! Pros: A lot of food for the $ you spend Cons: That one guy more
