This is the USC Village Gala Opening. A grand time is being had by all.
Best dining hall on USC's campus
I'm proud to be a USC Trojan

Reminiscent of Harry Potter!

Lugares Especiales para toda la FAMILIA 👪
I loved it they had some great food
My baby girl became a Gamma today!
lots of good food and just a beautiful building
I think the food there are healthier than other restaurants. Also the price is not expensive. $12.5/person
Great Menu! So delicious and fresh! Soup is especially good!❤️❤️❤️
Clean, positive, healthy food. All of the workers are nice. Reminiscent of Harry Potter. Although we are not Harvard or Cambridge, impressive!
Harry Potter and all his Trojan friends love this place. Great food, great people, amazing facility.
Very g ood f ood Im staff so can eat there if I like
USC is a good school. The dining hall reminds me of hog warts. Some student I met were kind of mean though. But many were kinda nice :)
Food is definitely not good as parkside on most days. There are one or two days I found village to be worth visiting: Ramen, tuna poke bowl, or bulgogi beef. I tried to go to village every time when they offered ramen. The taste is not as good as Ramen Kenjo, and they only offer pulled pork instead of chashu, but the soup is very tasty, and you can basically get as many as you want. For other days, I would say parkside is a better choice. The food here at village is not that attracting.
This place reminded me of The 3 Broomsticks of Harry Potter, but brighter and 300 years younger. It is roomy, clean, and most of all, it has plenty of options to cater to different tastes.
Very convenient station for Amazon-related business. Guarantees your shipments are safe until you get them. I'd recommend using this location even for non-USC students. Light packaging materials are also provided.

Great place to mingle.
Good
Not as good as parkside but still pretty good
Great selection of food but there is the occasional off-meal. Biggest problem is the plates/bowls. They are often not washed completely
Yum! So much variety, and our crepes were great and we'll prepared. A+ on presentation!
I wish there were ice cream , cake or chocolate for dessert . We had a good lunch.
Pretty decent dining hall, probably my favorite on campus. Unfortunately not very consistent in quality from day to day. Also very expensive for non-students.
not the best dining hall at usc, but still decent
not as much variety as the other dining halls, but higher quality generally

Quality has dropped but still students go because there is not a so much better dining hall
A modern, beautiful building, inspired by Hogwarts. They have an awesome crepe and ice cream bar, and a great salad/sandwich bar where you can get grilled sandwich. I'd also say it has the best breakfast options, with good hashbrowns and breakfast burritos. But that's where the positives end. The Village Dining Hall offers the lowest quality food of all the dining hall. The food is bland, and apart from the vegan bar(which by the way, is low quality) few vegetarian options are offered. On the other hand, the other two dining halls give you warm food and give tofu and vegetarian meat substitutions. UVDH's biggest failure is probably the flexitarian bar. It's supposed to only have protein as an accent, not the main focus but in reality its "flexing the nonvegetarian." The main dishes are meat ones and the only vegetarian ones are plain vegetables. As a brand new dorm with a lot of stations, University Village Dining Hall has a lot of potential which it unfortunately doesn't live up to. But it can take a major step by becoming more vegetarian friendly.
Decent variety and decent food. All you can eat. Eh
All of the food is super healthy and the layout is weird. There's one section (of real food) that's actually good, one section that's sort of okay, one section that looks good but is fake food, and then the dessert section is great (there's a person that will make you a crepe). The atmosphere seems nice but it can be hard to section off a part of the table if you're hoping to have a more private meal. Oh and the chandeliers are plastic.

Disappointing dining hall
