| - I wouldn't go so far as to say Kafeteria is a glorified cafeteria, but the food sure is above the standard of any cafeteria I've eaten in whether it be in high school, college, or at a museum somewhere.
The structure of this place reminded me of The Market Cafe on E 9th St. if you are familiar with that establishment. The point is that there is something to meet most all tastes so it's a great place to go with a group of picky eaters. Not only can you mix and match sides, but there are various stations to choose from whether you want soup, salad, a juice bar item, pasta, pizza or a grilled or braised item.
Choose one or more stations to get your food and then pay just once on the way out. There's also a beverage cooler - but there is free water hiding nearby so look out for that.
I tried something from the Braised station: Rosemary Thyme Meatloaf with a sherry tomato sauce. For my sides I chose the roasted red skin potatoes and garlic green beans. The portion size was satisfactory. The flavor of the meatloaf, especially the sauce, was really good, and the green beans were cooked just right.
As the cafeteria experiences usually goes, this is a self-service place, but the set up was very structured from signage leading you upstairs, through to the payment process, seating and tray/plate disposal area.
A neat spot for a fast lunch with options to please most. Also open for breakfast. Weekdays only. Closes at 3p.
