Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Based on the price, the food quality was relatively delicious. There were at least 3-4 options of entrees. You can always find a good pizza and a nice chicken burger. The fruits were very fresh. My favorite part is that they got organic soy milk here and several kinds of cereals."
"They have pretty decent food here and the selection always changes so you're not getting the same thing over and over. Big note: 10/10 recommend their chocolate chip cookies. Better get them before they disappear!"
"Staff were kind and welcoming. A lot of variety to choose from. Vegan food available too which is a bonus. Not too expensive for an all you can eat. Clean and hygienic place . Some staff can make you feel unwelcome but otherwise great!"
"The lunch buffet at the Fresh Food Company in Broward Hall was a pleasant experience. I especially enjoyed the beef pasta and grilled chicken and broccoli. At $12 per person, it felt quite reasonable given the wide variety of options available—including pizza, pasta, sandwiches, salads, rice, fruits, soft drinks, and desserts."
"A 5 star simply because it is what to expect from a good collage dining hall, the food is not mind blowing, but it is always fresh, available in as great a quantity as you desire, and always has at least something worth eating. Breakfast is the weakest meal, dinner the strongest. For lunch and dinner, really good ice cream. Its probably worth the meal plan"
"I honestly don't know where the negative comments are from. First off they just opened in September of 2024. New everything. All older comments are not for this place but the place before. This is a buffet style, on campus dining hall. I wasn't expecting a 5 star meal here but was pleasantly surprised. First it's all you can eat buffet style for 10 and change, lunch and dinner and 2 bucks lower for breakfast. Items are chef prepared with various stations in a circle fashion with a fresh salad bar, rice bowl area, cereal bar and waffle area, juice area, desert, pizza and pasta, sandwiches and much more depending on the time of day. Best selection is dinner after 6 but a great selection mid day as well. Its open to the public but as it's on campus parking is very limited. Is it Vegas quality buffet, no but its not supposed to be. For a student eatery it's definitely a 10. Beats the hell out of what we had when I was in school. Great food, ruby the manager was super sweet, clean and well staffed. Great place and did I mention the price.. unbeatable at 10 bucks."
"Okay, I was impressed with the amount of food they have here. I've only been there once so far, so I'm not sure if they always have the same items being served but I hope so. If they do then it's good and there's plenty to choose from. If not then that'll be disappointing. It's kind of expensive so definitely make sure to get all you can eat if you don't have a dining plan."
"I am a student with several dietary restrictions. I can always count on the Pure Eats station. Alex, Angela, Chef Sarah, Chef Janie, Angela, Chef Mark, Chef James, Chef John, and everyone else are always willing to go above and beyond to make sure I get a diverse and enjoyable diet during my time here at UF. I could not have a better situation here at Broward, especially because I thought I would need to buy an apartment and cook my own food in order to eat as a student. I cannot express my thanks enough for all they do."
