Since there are only two dining halls Mainfare and Butterfield the food at Mainfare is just okay, besides its deli options and weekend breakfast, which are amazing. Butterfield has more variety, and both dining halls are buffet style. I would recommend using your Dining Dollars (which like a debit card on your student ID) for food, but also going to the cafes on campus that serve great food
