Food is very hit or miss, some days have amazing food and other days are downright horribleVegetarian options: There are vegetarian options but they can be pretty hit or miss.Dietary restrictions: There is an entire section dedicated to food for people with allergies and they will make something if you have allergies but there are very limited choices.Parking: Parking can be hard to find in peak hours and you technically need a parking pass to parkKid-friendliness: This place is only for college students, so definitely not kid-friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Not really wheelchair accessible since the only entrance is with stairs.

The person at the front desk was rude and rude. I had been staying in the dormitory before, but the front desk insisted that I just came to Common from Sage for lunch, so I had to wait for 20 minutes. Very poor service attitude, treats customers like dogs.

The place looks pretty clean, But unfortunately the food selection & quality is just terrible, especially if you are paying thousands for the meal plan, it just Sad ? ?

Great service

I'll be real with you: most of the food is garbage and not exactly nutritious. There's occasional good food, but lines are long on those days and food runs out sometimes. It's far from perfect, but it's par for the course in terms of college food.

Little variety throughout the week. Food tends to be excessively salty. Lines are normal times are very long, have to manipulate when dinner and lunch open to get food in a timely manner. Pasta and pizza bar are wonderful though

There is consistent food selections at the grill which always makes burgers and fries. There are allergy free and vegan options though of inconsistent quality like the rest of the food, but generally okay. Meal plan is expensive though, but at least it's close to freshman dorms since freshman don't get to choose a plan. Staff are nice and it keeps you fed, sometimes pretty well so not bad.

The food is very inconsistent and there is no bathroom inside commons which is inconvenient if you want to stay a while.
Never trust the fish. NEVER, eating here definitely causes several health problems and you need to sign an NDA and agree to their health liability policy every time you have a meal.

Wednesday at Lunch, great. Every other time, not good. Have gotten food poisoning from Fish and Chips. Not something I expected.

It's pretty hit or miss, to be honest. The meal plan is pretty expensive at RPI, and ultimately, the food doesn't seem worth that amount. It would be nice for there to be more flex dollars made available. The staff there is good. Sometimes lines can be a pain to deal with. I personally believe that things could be made better in Commons if they installed some sort of grocery section with easy-to-make on-the-go foods(like sandwiches and stuff).

Commons, after it's redesign, is a lovely modern version of the standard college eating area. Has multiple types of food to choose from, all made by Sodexo. The food in question is for the most part decent, but the best choice by far, is whatever the cook in front of you meal is that day. The wait is longer, but the quality and taste of the food there, is always superb.
