    The food was excellent. I miss, however, the option to add the "cold" portion of the buffet (the salad particularly) to my order. I wasn't interested in ordering the whole buffet to my chosen entree. I am also upset that even though I am a member, I now have to go through the ordeal of paying with a credit card rather than having the bill directly placed on my monthly pay check. I used to appreciate not having to deal with paying in front of my guests. That, to me, has been the greatest loss to the advantage of being a member.

    Fun place to pre-game/tailgate with friends if you don't do the full rent-a-space, set-up, cook, take-down routine on campus. Still festive with everyone in spirit wear. The staff is wonderful. Personally, I'd say for the price they could do a bit more to make it special for gameday (e.g., make pom-poms or special buttons / yell cones / flags / whatnot available & exclusive). Even naming the entrees in theme with that week's adversary could be fun

    Enjoyed my salad with salmon and the tomato bisque. Bread options are fun - try the pretzel bread. Lovely setting - old building that has charm and has been renovated. One of the sinks in the ladies' room wasn't working right but that's hardly a thing to complain about. Lovely oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of USC.

    Whenever we go to UClub we are greeted with the friendliest hosts and despite not always having made a reservation on busy days, guests and members seem to always be seated right away. The atmosphere, setting and food choices is excellent for a nice lunch or a business lunch meeting.

    Overall it was nice. Server was very professional. But everytime I go there, the lady sitting at the front desk does not smile nor act nice. There is an additional service fee but I never enjoy interacting with her. Food and service from other people was great, but they need to do something with her.
