Rice with teriyaki chicken, vegetable stir fry, and vegetable potstickers on the side. Cauliflower macncheese with fried Cod and roasted carrots/asparagus with Cholula hot sauce drizzled on top. Overall, pretty decent food as there's a lot of variety. Was not able to go all week eating burgers and fries at Snelling. There is also pasta but for now I have no pictures.

Amazing options here! Love it every Georgia home game. They put a lot of effort into making everything so awesome. Everything always taste so fresh and 2 adults ate for 21 or 21.50. Definitely will be back.

As a student who doesn't have a meal plan review. The food and selection is great and varies weekly. The price with a student discount is 10.50 for lunch. Also this Hall is open to public. I love the yogurt selection and occasionally the coffee selection. It does get busy during lunch however that's expected. Note: the bathroom is outside the dining area which means existing thru the metal rotating things, but if you ask they will let you in no need to pay again. I recommend this Hall, it's spacious and is a vibe with the amout of sunlight inside due to the massive windows.

Great food, better people. Rainforest coffee. What more can you ask for. I’ll break it down. Breakfast: Upstairs egg line is the move. Mix and match your favorite toppings. Gladis, Andrew and Carol-Lynn make a mean omelette/scramble quickly and always taste delightful. They brighten my day every morning. God bless them. Don’t sleep on the cake donuts downstairs. Random Casseroles also bang. Go ahead, get some gravy You can always count on the pasta line, tacos / wings to hit. Sandwich line is a good option if short. Burgers are decent too. Really can’t go wrong with anything upstairs. New Asian food is also decent. Great new addition. Downstairs can be hit or miss depending on what’s being served. You’ll figure it out. The ceiling makes me feel like I’m at Hogwarts. The Harth makes me feel like I’m at Harvard. Thanks for reading my review In Bolton We Trust.

I visited my girlfriend and she took me to her university dining hall. Their service was amazing. There were many different types of dishes to choose. The two-floor dining hall had a lot of comfortable seats and round tables with many UGA elements. I liked their meatloaf, chicken wings, and yogurts. But the Asian fried noodle and tofu were extremely salty. I would come here every week if I were studying at UGA.
