Hospital food and Hospital Cafeteria food have been given a bad rap over the years.
I've eaten here many times, and have also been an inmate next door as well. The food is good. Not Talking Stick Buffet good, but Three Stars, A-Okay good. You will also find the Barista Coffee Bar is better than the Green Mermaid in many ways.
I've never seen or eaten anything that has been wilted or gone bad. I have watched however, them taking the temperature of the the food they are cooking, to make sure it's done. But everything here is good.
If on the other hand you want something more gourmet, that has a certain "je ne sais quoi ", then get in your car and drive two minutes to Desert Ridge and eat at MiDiCi Pizza.
BTW, No lettuce or tomatoes have been harmed in the writing of this review!
