Downunder Cafe Reviews
This ain't your typical Reno buffet! Instead, the food options are healthy, flavorful, and often made-to-order. As with other buffets, there are a variety of stations (e.g., pizza, pasta, grill, salad bar--including local vegetables, stir-fry, drinks--Wow! the options, and desserts), but there are also many options for those with special dietary needs (i.e., vegan, vegetarian, nut-free, gluten-free). As with any college dining commons, you serve yourself and bus your own tables....read full review
It depends on what you eat there. You can't expect paper-wrapped burgers and pizza to be of good quality. The stir fry, salad bar, and Comfort eats sections are pretty good! It serves slightly better food than any high school cafeteria, but that isn't a very good standing on its own. Otherwise, customer service and accommodations are fantastic. The DC can easily improve if more focus (money wise) went towards it.

My son is currently a freshman at UNR and I wanted to give the cooks and other staff a shout out in a positive light. Every day he loves the food so much. I have been meaning to write this review since august 2023. He loves the desserts, pastas, selections of veggies and every type of meat dish he has he says is amazing. Thank you to all who work here to keep my kid full…he’s a food guy so a good meal matters. Thank you for keeping his belly full!
