There is a good variety of food available here. They had Sushi Fridays till last semester (Fall 2020), don't know about the next semesters. The desserts include cookies and different kinds of brownies or cakes which are very tasty. Love the place

"We have to feed like a million college students, if we create enough food to literally bury them regardless of quality, they'll be happy, right?" - UDCC management (for real though, busiest place to eat on campus but still pretty good. Except the pizza, it's 1/3 crust and only okay because even they can't screw up pizza)

This is one of the best dining halls Iowa State University has to offer. It is probably the largest of the dining halls, so there are typically a lot of options to choose from. The food is usually quite fresh, and they often times have good menu items. However, you can check on ISU dining's website to see if they have something good for any particular day. It's nice to note that they are one of the two dining halls open on the weekend. Overall, Union Drive Marketplace is very good.
