Visited during a UK Merit Weekend, what a place! I can’t imagine having a facility like this when I went to college. UK really has invested in some impressive facilities for students. Everyone was very helpful and nice. Wish I was going to college again!

The 90 is such a convenient place for college students at UK to grab food and somewhere that I go to often. It’s right in the middle of everything that happens on central campus, it has so many options everyday and it even has food for people with allergies and any food restrictions. The layout is very welcoming with bright lights and lots of open space and seating for everyone. My favorite part about the 90 is that I never feel like I’m eating the same thing over and over again. The food is better than I expected for a dining hall. Other than the food, I find that it is also a great place to meet up with your friends. Me and my friends even walk over there sometimes to get ice cream from the dessert station. Therefore, the 90 is a great place for students if they want to grab a meal or even just a snack, I would definitely recommend this to any UK students and visitors.

Being a University of Kentucky student, The 90 allows for a very accessible food option for students at any point throughout the day, with the variety of food changing every day. There are different food choices for every type of person which I personally really like as everyday is something new and allows for everyone to find something they like. The food quality is good for what it is and what you pay, and overall nothing too special. I go there at least once a day and I am usually always able to find something I would like to eat, and they usually always rotate between breakfast, lunch and dinner around the same times. In my opinion breakfast is usually the only time I find their food to be lacking with the quality seeming lower than most other meals during the day. Sometimes they have local restaurants bring in food which is always very good, and overall The 90 is a great place if you're looking for some food and not sure exactly what you want.

Great service, including social distancing guidelines. It was also really quick, but that's probably because we didn't go at a peak time. I enjoyed the food, and the servings were well portioned. Its a buffet, which makes it worth the money, and there's and option to get more food at one time.

The dining hall at the 90 is surprisingly good for a college dining hall. The spacious area has plenty of tables even during the busiest part of the day. It has a good selection for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The rotating station creates a new meal you can enjoy for dinner. Although the food can be lackluster, it does the job for a college student. The breakfast is the only complaint I have, it reminds me of a hotel style breakfast. Overall, the 90 dining hall is a solid option for college students. While breakfast could use some improvement, the variety and spaciousness make it a convenient and generally satisfying place to eat. It's a reliable choice for daily meals, especially with the rotating dinner options, which often introduce a different meal most days. One big factor that is taken for granted is the tidiness of the dining hall. All the plates and cups come clean while all the tables are being wiped down as people get up from their tables.
