It’s good to have GreenFish. We had a visiting in the afternoon, so we arranged a quick lunch, bentos, for the group of 40. The food is nice, space is big, and visitors like what they had. Thanks to Genius for the arrangement. 😀😀😀

Really like the options and service here, even though I can't/don't eat most of what they serve. Good variety of soup options day to day, really good turkey sandwich in the refrigerator area, ample indoor but limited outdoor seating can make finding a seat in nice weather challenging.

They have burritos/bowls, Italian, Asian, salad bar and so much more! Prices are fair. Atmosphere is nice and clean with plenty of space for working on laptops.

We are so lucky to have GreenFish. My favorite thing is how friendly and efficient they are, and second favorite is that they make so many of their own ingredients. I love their homemade salad dressings (esp. lemon vinaigrette and Cesar) at the salad bar. The homemade spicy miso ramen broth is so satisfying on chilly days! (The ramen isn't on the web menu because they don't want the noodles to get soggy.)

You should have the katsu and Korean dishes here. I was quite surprised about the high quality of the dishes as Korean. But quite pricey as university dining.

Finally open again! Seems to be under different management. Food was solid. I'm excited to try more. Some side notes. The ordering system is a bit awkward. You can use the kiosks at any food prep area to order any cuisine. However, you have to walk all the way to the front, to then step back and stand around awkwardly waiting while kind of being in the way of others from ordering. Seems like less customizability when ordering through these kiosks, but in the end, I still talked with the chef. Biggest disappointment is no more salad/sandwich bar 😔

Spicy Salmon poke bowl was delicious, but quite expensive 🥲

Now called Greenfish at Nexus Cafe. A variety of tasty dishes with daily specials. Food is a bit pricey for students, their intended audience, and should definitely be reduced if at all possible.

A very good cafeteria for people who work or have business near Stanford hospital. They have a full salad bar; made to order pasta, Asian kitchen, noodle, burger, Mexican, etc. Menu is different every week and I'm very satisfied with the quality.

if you're vegetarian and to not vegetarian plenty of choices of food & there's a fee /charge for reusable cup $.25

The food is quite good and the service is great, given how simple is to order from the kiosk. Although there is no order number so it is not easy to understand how long you need to wait. Maybe they could do something about it. The atmosphere is the best thing, tables clean and cool place. The price is a little over respect to quality and quantity.

Watch what you order from here. I made the mistake of ordering a poke bowl. It was $14, and I only got a bite-ful of fish. It's mostly rice and lettuce in the bowl. I've had better experience with the bibimbap.

The selection of the main course is not very good. I wish they have better Chinese dishes/noodles. Usually following the longest line will get you the best food on the corresponding day. The quality of food does not match the quality of the building. Salad is ok.

Food is mediocre and trash bins are always overflowing. Prices are not that low. Also, this may seem nitpicky, but I don't like how none of the cashiers say the total when charging you, they just reach for your card. I would like to know how much my meal is costing, especially when I'm buying something by weight. Also, this used to be a good place to come for dinner, but lately the dinners have really gone downhill. Every time I have stopped by for dinner recently the only option has been rice, steamed vegetables and meat, which means vegetarians are paying $9 for veggies and rice.

I have gone there for breakfast several times. My lunch break is at 9:30. They claim to stop serving breakfast at 11 but even at 9:30 it's hard to find a cook who is not busy cleaning up his area. By 10 they have shut down most of the breakfast stations and are setting up all the stations for lunch. So they have the salad bar up, but you can't get anything from it till lunch starts at 11. So most times I'm stuck getting cold breakfast food that looks like it's been sitting too long or a small salad from the fridge that holds the drinks. Ask any cook to help you any time after 9:30 and it's like you just slapped them if they don't just ignore you.
