Connection Cafe

Many things are regularly empty, for example the cold brew, ketchup, soup, ranch, etc. there’s only one trash can and it’s behind the employee counter, they serve burgers almost every day, the floors are always sticky, the tables are usually dirty, almost all of the cups and plates have little bits of food on them, the online menus are often inaccurate, and they don’t have allergens listed anywhere.
Edit: I recently got the second to last slice of pizza only to find it was almost completely raw. To think almost a whole raw pizza was taken (hopefully not eaten) by guests is just disgusting.

I once went through 15+ cups just trying to find one without a visible piece of food in it (that often don't come out with a hand rinse), and the only reason I stopped is because one of the higher-up staff members started yelling at me for "contaminating" the (already disgusting) cups. She started making a scene and tried to get me kicked out (just for trying to find a visibly clean cup to use) until I had her calm down.

I've been eating here for over a year and a half out of necessity, and the only food close to "good" at this cafeteria are the breakfast tacos, salad bar, and occassional "Street food" restaurants that rotate in. It is a rare occurence to find a clean piece of cutlery or dish on your first try. If we're lucky, this place will get demolished and replaced with the rest of the building in the near future.

The food is always nasty, and the vegan options are tiring. Like the dish wear isn't clean and the plates aren't either.

Absolutely garbage. Untrained employees. They don’t even serve prisoners this slop

This place is not worth the cost, the food is low quality and honestly disappointing. It is reflective of the UTA experience.
