Now called Buster's Kitchen. Don't bring a date, it'll be the last one. The burgers and fried boneless chicken tend to be consistenly good, all other lunches and dinners are highly varied. Love when fries are fresh. No way is this a good value, way overpriced like all food on campus.Breakfasts are great from the grill. Still overpriced.Vegetarian options: They tend to always have a vegetarian option, and I've seen a lot of gluten free.

Just mid all the way around. The food is usually not that special, sometimes it's worse than mid and occasionally it's goated with the sauce. They always have soda soft serve salad pizza burgers and cookies, with usually about 3 more dessert options and 3 fresh meal options (1 allergen free). So

Food is absolute garbage. I would not recommend eating there unless you are dying of hunger. McDonald’s is healthier than this place.I was a student here for 2 years.

Good buffet for university students. Has vegan options. Not sure if allergy safe.

My son never attended this school and yet he was billed for a dorm room in 2020. I immediately called the housing department a number of times to explain that he did not attend the school & he should not be billed. They assured me they would take care of it. Yesterday 11/2021 we received a letter from a collection agency that Boise State sold our information to. As if there are not enough things to worry about now we are being scammed by a public university.

The best lunch you can get for $10. All you can eat, high quality, many options.

No I did not attend Boise State University but like many other people I was intrigued by the famous blue football field. If you watch college football you will probably know about the field. To see the field go to the Allen Noble Hall of Fame Gallery on the south west side of the stadium. Inside there you can walk around the gallery to see the replicas of some of the trophies their sports teams have won throughout their history and other good information about the school. One of the volunteers will give you a tour and give you some history and more information about the field too. Unfortunately visitors are not allowed to stand on it but you can get to the ground level and see it in all its blue glory. The volunteer Andrea was very knowledgeable about the field and answered a lot of my questions about it. She also told me other cool tidbits of information. There used to be a track field on the same location but they put one of the bleachers on top of it. She also mentioned that they actually have an international trademark for this type of field and that if you want to put a non-green field for entertainment you have to request permission from BSU. She was telling me so many stories and other gems that she heard from Gene Bleymaier himself, the athletic director who came up with the idea of putting the blue field to begin with. It's cool to finally check out the field that I had only seen on TV for so long.

Depends on the time of the day you go. The breakfast is the best they have to offer but later in the day, more food gets burnt or becomes of lower quality. If you are going to go, I would recommend going in the morning and getting an item from the grill. If you must go later in the day, avoid the grill.

Good selection, fair price, dessert included

Boise State was a word always spoken from my whole entire family, and at first I was a little skittish about my sister pursuing a nursing course their. I will say I'm not at all aware or familiar with the way the university controls the academics, but when my family first went over for family weekend... I was in awe !! The environment surrounding the whole school was just beautiful !! Waking on the bridge surpassing the Green-belt river, everything around the place was exactly what I'd want in a college ! I recommend going their for any nature lovers although I'm still not aware about the academics.

Lots of food, quality isn't that good. Pretty good variety, not a lot of healthy options.

Lance Lorang

Variety and abundance combined with restaurant quality service
