The Kitchen Table
The new Daystar Dining Hall will be the place to have meaningful conversations, share innovative ideas, and make lasting friendships. The Dining Hall staff, along with a student committee, collaborate to incorporate student feedback and requests. The diverse dining options cater to various preferences, including traditional grill items, deli-style sandwiches, a variety of fruits and vegetables, a salad bar, cereals, pizza, pastas, Asian, Mexican, and specialty cuisines, as well as gluten-free options. All options are conveniently available cafeteria-style, with ample choices to suit everyone's taste.
Chick-fil-A has relocated to the Daystar Dining Hall along with our lastest option, Pei Wei. Be sure to visit the other delicious dining options around campus presented by Sodexo Food Services.
