    a takeout container with noodles and chicken

    Fuck this stingy ass Cafe, The food tastes like shit, stop trying to bring out the Chinese menu when your food worse than Panda Express. The staff serves tiny bit of food, like one little scoop of each, and food all overpriced. I went back ask the staff if I could get some more, cuz you literally gave me one scoop of noodle, he answered with "no, that's the size how to serve" Art Center should consider rent this cafe to someone else who knows how to chef.

    Contrary to what a lot of students say, this cafe has everything you'd need. Every day there's something different on the menu, there's a large Coke machine, coffee, a variety of drinks and snacks, and even Sushi Tuesdays. Don't get spoiled, students.

    This is a disaster, student special, cheeseburger macaroni !

    I come here with hope and leave with regrets, forget about taste and flavor when visiting this place! They food actually never changes, their fish tastes like chicken their chicken tastes like their fish, bland and very much comparable to hospital food. Everything is overpriced, and poor student's "student special" is made with whatever they had left over! This place is a shame and disaster for school like Artcenter.

    Too slow to photo. To hungry to enjoy.

    I'm not always hungry but when I am I'm sure to hit up the one and only Art Center Cafe. I don't dilly dally with the mediocrity that exists in the vending machines hidden amongst the dark corners of the campus. I make sure to warm my soul in the amply lit cafe sporting a scenic view of grass, trees, and a smoking area. The scenery is aight, but the real tooth fruity is the what Sodexo likes to call the "crispy chicken sandwich". My god it's dank. You about it? I'm about it and so should you, your mom, and your mom's friends. Desmond just gets his fry right every time. Yeah, sure frying a frozen chicken patty really ain't that hard, but it certainly ain't easy either. It's all about the decisive moment, the instant where both crispness and moistness reach their maximization and stabilize. Trying the damn sandwich, it's good.

    This is 4 dollar and it is the art center special...

    Very very pricy for some low quality salty food. I strongly recommend to order delivery other than the art center cafe.

    Much BS from the one and only: SODEXO Photo cred. A friend.

There's never enough menus to go around while waiting to order. As a nice gesture, I let those behind me have our menu after we had decided and described the dish I wanted to the women working the counter. This dish was written on their menu by name, a melon prosciutto bowl, but she was very confused and eventually keyed in a prosciutto scramble which was not what I wanted and not listed anywhere on their menu (I double checked). There's not many tables, and nobody seems to clear them with any urgency even though there are always many people waiting to sit down. The last three times I have been there, the food took at least 30-40 minutes to come out after ordering, which is insane for a counter service cafe with a dozen tables. Any time I've asked how much longer on our food, the staff is very dismissive and rude and just barks 'we're busy!' .... OK? You're literally ALWAYS busy, is there not any way you can plan or staff for this in advance? The food runners always seem confused about what food is going where and are inconsistent with bringing silverware. The cherry on top of this last visit is that the rest of my party got their food (again, after about 35 minutes), with a promise that my dish was 'on its way'. We waited ten minutes before approaching the hostile staff at the counter to find... my dish, the scramble that I didn't even order and wasn't on their menu, had been sitting already made for the whole ten minutes. Nobody thought to grab it and deliver it, and when we asked about the dish and wait, were met with hostile shrugs and blank stares. Again, the food is delicious, but I won't be back until they fix their disastrous service and attitude.

There are plenty of celeste-colored chairs, several tables, and outlets, which makes it a great place to study or socialize. The A/C is also a huge plus. The menu appears relatively unchanged. The drinks are pretty good and not overly sweet, and there's also a fairly decent selection of pastries.

The guest of Honor, Ronnald M from Orlando Fl, is as sweet as the house made desserts in the display case. My lovely gals, Te-See & Rosie, joined us too, which made the gathering more fun. The entranceway is stunning - marbled floors, a gold staircase, and a gorgeous cascading chandelier. There is a side room that is also lovely and a lounge area upstairs. Monica was our server and she was an absolute delight. (Jordan was also darling.) Our order consisted of Pistachio Toast, Croissant with butter & jam, Honey Cake, "Rafi" Coffee, Chai Latte, Iced Tea, and a glass of Prosecco. The Pistachio Toast was made with charcoal bread topped with a lightly sweetened pistachio spread and fresh strawberries & blueberries. It was tasty. The Honey Cake was like a crepe cake. It was good and not overly sweet. The Prosecco was crisp, light, & refreshing. Before we left, we had a nice chat with the owner, Tony. He was very friendly and told us they were working on opening a location in Florida. That made Ronnald happy. He also mentioned they have live entertainment on the weekends starting at 7:30 pm. *Free 90-minute parking in the structure across the street. $2 every hour after.

He showed me around as I took in the high ceilings, spacious feel and the huge gorgeous chandelier hanging high above the stairs that led to another dining area where you can reserve it for private events/celebrations:) Let's get back to the food! They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner with LIVE Entertainment on the weekends starting around 7:30pm. The baked goods including the cakes are all made by the staff off the premises. YUM! Dennis made my delicious "Rafi" coffee: Espresso, vanilla, sugar, oat milk. My croissant was very flaky and fresh. The others ordered & shared: *Pistachio Toast - Black charcoal toast with pistachio spread & fresh fruit - 5/5 *Honey Cake - light and tasty, not too sweet - 5/5 *Chai Latte - 5/5 *Iced Tea *Prosecco Our server, Monica, was very sweet and took great care of our group! Will be back for dinner so I can hear the live music! *They are looking to expand to the Miami area , Sunny Isles, Florida. *Parking is FREE for 90 minutes in the lot across from the cafe - then $2 for every hour after that ~ and that's all I have to say about that...

They have free WiFi and free street parking in front of the cafe or around the block. I stayed a whole day to study at the cafe and was able to try all 3 of their cortados, their matcha coconut refresher, and the almond croissant. My favorite drink was the espresso loop which was so delicious with the smooth and balanced flavor of the espresso with a taste of chocolate and citrus which I love. Their espresso is strong and I also enjoyed their espresso trung which was similar to the taste of tiramisu to me. Their espresso black sesame had a really nutty flavor with a stronger espresso flavor, but it wasn't my favorite. I really loved their almond croissant which had a sweet glaze crust on top and an almond paste filling. Their matcha coconut refresher was so good but SO pricey for $9.31 after tax. They use Nami matcha for the matcha cold foam, but hard to justify that price considering it's just the matcha foam with coconut water. Otherwise it was super delicious and great to try, but prob won't be splurging on that next time. Overall a great spot for great coffee and studyability. I'd recommend either coming earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon for a better chance of getting seats.

Today, on Mother's Day, we ordered avocado toast and quiche with salad. After waiting nearly 40 minutes, our food finally arrived -- and I was honestly shocked by the portion size and the poor quality of the avocado toast (I'll attach the photo). After politely speaking to the waiter and waiting for assistance, no one came back. I eventually had to go inside myself and speak directly to the owner. Instead of resolving the issue properly, she simply said they couldn't remake it and offered "extra avocado" instead. After waiting another 5 minutes, she told me to go sit outside and they would bring it out. They brought very tiny avocado slices. What should have been a beautiful Mother's Day experience was completely ruined. In the end, my husband had to go inside and request a refund. We are beyond disappointed and will never return. Customers deserve kindness, respect, and proper service -- and sadly this place no longer offers any of that. Avoid this place if you value good service and being treated with respect.
