What Students Are Saying
The Student Union has an eclectic grouping of restaurants! Every time I go up there, I find something that I just know wasn't there before! If your vegan, a meat lover, love cuisines from all over the world, this is your place....oh made to order specials, too!
Tamara from Omaha, NE
On our south campus, students have access to an excellent dining hall that offers an all you can eat buffet. On our north campus, students have access to the student center which offers a wide variety of food for students to choose from. I've been here for my entire college career and have yet to try everything that UNO has in their food court.
Jayson from UNO
The cafeterias have amazing food, but if you live in the dorms you have the option to make your own food.
Cecilia from Omaha, NE
The food is very good, always fresh and made everyday, and it's always available at the Student Center along with a convenience store. The only issue is that it is a little over priced, so one should only eat there if they only have a little bit of time, otherwise they could go to the mall down the street, or take the shuttle bus to Scott Court and walk to Aksarben Village for some food.
Alexander from Omaha, NE
The dining area is great and offers a variety of different fast food restaurants however it is not the typical cafeteria approach. There is great variety though and lots of seating to mingle.
