Lot of workers sitting in the cafeteria taking their break which is fine- they deserve a break too, although one was there for more than an hour. Main problem is when they listen to their radio out loud ? so we all have to hear it. One fellow is playing Mexican music really loud.

Good food at a good price. Lots of variety and worth the walk from other parts of campus.

The food is awful! I went again to try to give it a fair chance, but overall, it lacks flavor. At a school like Stanford, I expect wayyy better! They need to improve!

Very yummy.

The jewel of on-campus dining. This spot looks like one of the Big Tech cafeterias from the Before Times - if you've been lucky enough to eat at the Apple, Google, or Facebook cafes, you'll see what I mean. Broad selection of cuisines, quality fresh ingredients, and quick, with a number of grab and go items. Not cheap for campus, but price competitive for the broader area. Worth visiting if you need a quick, tasty bite on campus and are feeling bougie.

If you're a regular attendee and enjoy Mexican food, they have excellent nachos on most Fridays. (Every once in a while, they have tacos or tostadas instead, which are great too.) They rotate the meat available (beef, pork, turkey, chicken) and offer vegan toppings as well. (I often ask for half & half meat & veggies.) Chips are house-made and unsalted -- a big plus, since all other ingredients are (lightly) salted. The cheese sauce is house-made also and I must confess, it's the best I've ever had and I've lived in CA all my life. Servings are generous (as with all their offerings) and other toppings are great: guacamole, sour cream, house-made salsas (red and/or green) and lettuce, added as you please. Try them sometime. You won't regret it!

Phenomenal food at a student-friendly price! Had lunch with the wife today at this magnificent establishment and it was terrific. This cafeteria is part of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and is apparently where all of the b-school eager beavers refuel on sustenance. ? I particularly appreciated the, oh-so-clever, names that accompanied each of the food stations. ? Haha, you can totally tell this is where all of the MBA people hang out! Definitely get lunch here if you're in the area!

Only 1 visit, but the food was good.

The company that runs this — Bon Appetit Management Company — is the best. Google them. They are rightfully know for doing a fabulous job.

Arbuckle Dining Pavilion has a diverse selection of wineries, each with their own strengths/specialties. my favorites are as follows: miner oracle (meritage blend), hanna sauvignon blanc, mount eden chardonnay and the chateau montelena cab.i was a little surprised to read other reviewers complaining about the price of the tastes. people seem to have no problem paying $10-12 for a glass of mediocre wine at a wine bar, but somehow $3-5 for a taste of higher quality wines is overpriced? doesn't add up to me.

Food is great and a good value?

sustainable food at a reasonable price they've got all different kinds of foods including Japanese, Italian, Mexican, Indian, South American, and Western cuisine. The portion sizes are not super big but reasonable for the price tag and will fill you up if you're wanting a quick lunch. Despite what googlemap says, Arbuckle dining is in fact open on Fridays until 5pm.
