The food is awesome!! The service is amazing, you have to try the Cubana Sandwich or the Club Deli, my absolute favorites, I just wish I knew who made it, sometimes the sandwich is made with larger portions as opposed to sometimes whoever makes it skimps out on the meat and other ingredients (rushing maybe?) But besides that best lunch around the Hospital!

My only problem is how difficult it has become over the past 2 weeks to order online. What happened?? It used to be much easier. Now it is so frustrating that I have started to just give up and grab something from the store instead

Even As a devout lover of chow hall breakfast I must say this place rivals that greatness. Biscuits and gravy are even better. Prices are also very reasonable. If you are at Nhcl and you’re hungry….go here!

Food is always made fresh and delicious! The gentleman who works the counter/cash register is very personable, professional, and courteous. At lunchtime, you can even order easily from a kiosk.
